Beautiful valley

Great spot! Restrooms and several tables at each site, small creek with beautiful valley walls. Check out the balancing rock and climb up for more great views

Large with nice amenities

This site is huge! At least 50 people could use this site, which would make it great for reunions. There are plenty of toilets and a shaded picnic table area. There's also a little cabin with a wood burning stove inside. Only downside is that most of the site is shadeless so bring some canopies
