Very relaxing
I was so excited to check this campground out. When my hubby and I arrived we automatically were happy. The campground was very clean, well ran, all sites were marked open or reserved with the arrival and departure date on it, bathrooms are the cleanest vault toilets we have ever seen (and we camp all over), there is a fire station located close to the campground which was good to know in case of fires. The host is very nice and helpful. If you have any questions or concerns he is happy to help! There is running water for dishes and campfires as well as horse corrals for your horse. Pull through sites for trailers. Everyone that was staying on the equestrian loop was amazing. Site 31 did have a problem with ants.
Nice Campground
We really enjoyed how the campground looked and the spots however the camp sight was littered with fire ants where one of our guests and a dog got bit unfortunately. Also I must say the bathrooms were pretty horrendous with the amount of spiders inside.
Campsite 7 & 18
We booked campsite 7 & 18 which are both double sites. It was perfect for our big group of 20 people (including kids). Both sites were literally across from each other.
Campite 7 is probably the best site in the campground. A lot of space and shade! Camp 18 was also a spacious but has limited shade.
A bonus for this campsite is there's a hiking trail in the end of campground. You'll notice a lot of foot traffic as hikers are walking through to get to the trail.
The weather going in May was perfect. During the day it low 80s, warm in the sun and chilly in the shade. At night was low 50s which a sweater and long sleeve was only needed. All campsites have a bench, fire pit, and shares a spigot. There are vaulted bathrooms and have toilet paper. The host cleans it out every day.
Would definitely come back! Especially knowing about the double sites being close to each other.
