Was really quite a good time. The camp host had gotten hurt so wasn’t around but everyone seemed to be very respectful and conscientious about the other campers. Noise was minimal and the driving around and dust seemed to be better this year.

The campground is very nice and overlooks a wide meadow where deer visited the area at dusk. The bathrooms were very clean and well maintained, firewood was available for purchase, and a water pump was on-site. Our host Leanne was very helpful, especially after we had car trouble and needed a ride to use a phone. I would stay here again.

Our first experience boondocking but all went well and our space at Tie Flume was exceptionally beautiful with Big Daddy Moose eating reeds in the river and Momma long legs coming thru camp WITH her baby. It was amazing like we were in another world
