Great backpacking site

I have stayed at this site once but visited it twice now and it is really the second best on top of the ridge while doing the loop. We wanted to stay at the next campground along but were unable to find space. Make sure to check out my review of Cheaha Falls Campground where I discuss the entire loop and the best times of year to visit. The downside to staying this far along the ridge is that even in times with high water levels it is pretty far away and you will be trekking back and forth a good distance if you don’t fill up along the way. Additionally, this site is located right at the turning point of the trail so everyone who passes will actually loop around your site or pass right through it. Otherwise it is great cause you get a direct view out from the ridge and sunset is amazing!!! Make sure to spend some time out on the rocks at night since you can see every star in the sky. There is nothing special about the firepit but it is nice that there is space to set up several tents in different areas and there are plenty of trees for hammocks. Overall, its worth checking Skyway Loop Campground with view to see if it is available but otherwise staying here is not a bad option at all.
