Clean well maintained and easy stop
Nice trail around the outside that wove in and out of the trees for dog walking. Otherwise, I'm in an RV so no road noise. One caution for Verizon users who want to work during the day, the wireless is slow. Great after traffic slows but completely unworkable otherwise.
Easy access when passing through
Very easy access off I80 so it makes for a good stop for the night. The sites are large with 30 amp power and excellent cell service. This would be a 5 star atop except for one thing, it's right next to I80.
Unlike most highways, I80 doesn't quiet down after dark. The heavy trucks come out at night. For most city dwellers you don't notice the noise but I live in a very rural area and I'm not used to the constant thunder and tire whine of a freeway.
Beautiful lawn and trees
Very large campground. Sites come with or without electricity. There is a dump station insight, and also potable water. Small pond, but also small lake for swimming. Restrooms are clean. Must pay for a state pass plus the campground fee...$33 per night for non-residents. Lots of place to spread out and run the pups. We will be back!
