Amazing camp site and so incredible seeing all the Elk in the morning!!
The campsite, location and checkin process were very easy and it’s a great place. There were very loud people who talked til 1am so we didn’t get much sleep, so it would be nice if they had a more serious quiet policy.
Campground was great! The amenities were clean and the little lake is very pretty. We saw Elk and hawks and frogs. Be Aware that although they say there is WiFi, it comes with a steep price! $25 for 24 hours, and there is no cell phone reception for Verizon. They have “free WiFi” but it is only for 30 minutes once every 24 hours.
Nice site. Map could be clearer but would definitely stay here again.
We're a bit mixed. There's lots to recommend about this place: friendly staff, clean bathrooms, showers and laundry, some Internet, small lake and hiking trails. The main negative is the small size of the tent sites.
I think this is a great campground for families. If you’re looking for a little solitude, this is probably not it. Some of the tent camping sites were really packed tightly together. They even had smaller fire pits to accommodate for the smaller size. My tent had to be about 5 feet from the next-door neighbors tent. For RV camping is probably great as they seem to have much larger spots. It was still convenient and felt very safe and the setting is nice.
