Wonderful Little Campground

Well maintained little city campground,  Reasonable cost: 19 gravel sites, some W/E some FU.  Town 2 minutes away. We stayed a week in August.  The Tunnel Hill bike trails travel in each direction so biking is amazing.  2 downsides only portajohns and portashowers.  And the Mosquitoes are prominent.
