Handicap accessible

Sometimes it’s hard to find sites where you can have a person in a wheelchair move around okay. These sites are good for that according to my cousin who has camped with out family in this area.

There is a lot of gravel on the roads though so it’s not as nice as having paved areas but we camped close to the restroom and managed (he’s young and did not mind a slight struggle).

My family’s site had a lot of packed soil making most of the traveling simple as we only stayed on the site for one night ti watch the stars.
