It was a great camping site. Unfortunately, it was very hot, and we left early because of health reasons. But we plan on coming back next summer.

Only stayed one night in my easy farther north, but thought my site a good site (though it was quite awkward to back into; a nearby camper said it's the hardest of the loop to get into). The facilities were a plus with flush toilet & shower.

We struggled locating campground using Google Maps. Should have noted directions on recreation.gov for reservation. Campground is very secluded -- good spot for a multi-day reservation.
