Good for Groups

This campground is located away from the 2 making it pretty quiet at night. It is a great location for large groups and especially groups with kids. It is close to a lot of good day hikes in the nearby area. The only drawback is that you need to bring your own water, there is no potable water at this campground.

party time!

Ok so this isn't exactly "wilderness" camping. It is probably the farthest you could get from a peaceful camping experience. I stayed at this campground as part of a HUGE group of classmates (over 100 peeps). Tons of space, lots of tables. You're basically free to drink/dance/rave all night long - the whole place is yours!
