It's okay

The site is right off of 299 which is convenient. The road through the camp is a bit rough. It is paved but it's knocked out in some places and quite steep in others.

Traffic during the day was almost 0 but at night it picks up a lot. I can't imagine there is a good reason for that.

Good for a night but that's about it.
