Nice, Quiet, Clean. Enough space between sites that your neighbors don't bug you. Bathroom was clean. only bad part was the trash cans were locked, so I couldn't throw my trash away on the way out.

This was possibly one of the best campgrounds I have visited, and certainly one of the most beautiful. It was well maintained and quiet. I had absolutely no problem. I really appreciate the state's approach to reserving campsites on line and ahead of time. I also appreciated the open sites being marked. We were able to take advantage of this to obtain an additional site for another guest.

Heidi, the campground host, was very helpful and friendly.

I suggest developing a short ( 2 to 3 mile) hiking trail from the campground.
The campground is a joy to stay at.
