We reserved this site for our family reunion. We loved having the convenience of a cabin with propane burners, a propane heater in the living area, and nice sturdy bunk beds, a huge dining hall with propane lighting, nice sturdy benches, play areas, a great fire pit area, a large parking space, and spaces for tents. We were hoping for water, but the well was dry. We hauled in water, but the toilet situation was hard. No flushing toilet in the cabin meant trips in the mud (it rained most of the weekend) navigating a steep incline and over a slippery bridge. We have older adults with mobility issues who slept in the cabin and this was a real struggle. One of the family members slipped on the bridge and smashed into the large rocks and was injured. We would suggest that a vault toilet be installed on the same level as the cabin which is easier to access for those staying in the cabin. The photos and description don't give a description of the ground-level differences of the site. Be prepared for lots of ups and downs. The cabin was left clean except for the dead mouse and droppings in the oven. When we arrived there were more than 30 head of livestock inside the fence making lots of manure piles for us to navigate and clean up -- apparently the campers before us left the 2 small gates unlocked and the livestock made themselves at home. Please close the gates!!! There was only a small amount of cut wood in the wood shed -- apparently all available rangers are fighting fires -- so we needed to find fallen trees and cut them -- be prepared for that. Besides the livestock invasion, navigating slippery slopes to the toilet, dead mouse in the oven, and low amount of wood, it was a great location to visit. There were lots of activities available and it was a very pretty area. For the price you pay it is an awesome find, I'm happy places like this are available. Just be prepared for the unexpected.
