Nice and Quiet

This is a first come first serve campground. No reservations can be made. There were mostly Rvers, but some tent campers were also scattered throughout the grounds. The bathroom was pretty nice and clean. The grounds were beautiful, even though you can tell some trees took a hit from the recent derecho. The camp host was friendly and helpful.
