The CCC's built the best CG's

Rustic CCC campground. Far from the road no noise or light pollution yet only 5-10 minutes to the supermarket. Clean Bathrooms, small loops.

Great park!

There are so many places to walk to and bike ride to. The sites have nice spacing in the section we stayed at. Tons of birds around which was really cool to listen to.
