The camp site was in direct sun (no trees for shade) and this site only has outhouse toilets. However, the surrounding area is beautiful.

Quiet spot tucked away in the mountains. Dirt loop roads were good for kids bikes. Hosts (Larry and Sherri) were very accommodating. 30 min drive to Saratoga and the hot springs. 20 min from alpine sights and hikes.

Very clean campground. No garbage at the campsites and the bathrooms were clean and well stocked with TP. Plenty of good trails around and the drive in from Centennial is beautiful.

Pros- This campsite was close to some of the most beautiful lakes we have ever seen.

Some of the cons- the ground was un-level making it hard to stabilize our camper. The hiking trail signs were very tough to read and in some spots completely worn off. The campsites seemed pretty close together.

Overall, we are happy with our trip.

Both of the campground and the pit toilet were very clean. It would be nice to have a shower facility there. Thanks so much for all the work of keeping this campground so clean.

Nice campground with very clean vault toilet bathrooms. Campground host was generous with having firewood available (with a donation bin). The water looked discolored, so we didn’t drink it.

Camp site was OK at best Driveway details are not Correct on the website claimed 99 ft I had a pick up and a 24 ft trailer. Barely enough room to get off the road and was unable to use the fire ring. I had to unload my side by side Before backing in the drive. Driveway was so narrow I could not park my side by side alongside of my truck. My side by side is small 50 inch wide Machine. I had to find a different location to park that. Things were grossly misrepresented. After driving 20 hours to get to this location. Those small details definitely can ruin a trip
