Great spot with friendly hosts

Great spot with friendly hosts. Big potholes in the road and some low hanging branches however it's very quiet and the spots are clean and spread out.

⚠️Warning ⚠️ Google maps and waze will try and take you down a sand road with very low hanging branches, THIS IS NOT THE ENTRANCE YOU WILL GET STUCK AND HAVE TO BACK OUT.

Go about a mile down the road to the spot where the national park campground sign is. You will see a loop on the Google maps overhead view. It is NOT the long road that looks overgrown. Don't make the same mistake we did. ⚠️🤣
