Great quick getaway

We took a quick one night stay at Meridian. We had our two young nephews (4 & 6) with us so we wanted a campground with at least a pit toilet. Meridian was well spaced out, had nice fire pits at each site, and had great shade. Cleanest pit toilets I’ve ever seen and the picnic tables at each site were very nice. We had a great time, plus we were able to have a fire! No restrictions when we visited. Camp host was present and nice.
