Basic Sites, Beautiful Benue

Don, the owner and former Marine, is helpful and friendly.  The views from some of the sites are terrific.  Probably to deter trucks from parking in what would have been a nice wide entrance, Don put three stumps in road.  These, combined with a not-very-well-trimmed tree, make for an interesting experience for big rigs.  Once inside, maneuvering is easy and campsites are spacious.  As far as I could tell, only Sites 1-5 have any hookups at all (Site 5is W/E).  Because of the partially-blocked entrance, I would not call Hillcrest a big rig-friendly campground.  I opine, too, that $35 is expensive for a boondocking site.
