Right off the highway

Easy to locate right off the high way. Just needed easy access to campground and was amazed at this place. Clean areas easy to see even at 1030pm. Canon areas well spaced out for nice privacy. Will use this place again.

Sitedon't know exactly as we came in late night. Just followed road back and found open spot on the right.

Excellent, easy campsite

We pulled into this site after a long day on motorcycles. Sites were easily accessible and our site had some flat ground and a fire ring. There were quite a few people there and we did not feel at all secluded in nature but, honestly, we didn’t mind the company and everyone was far enough away that it wasn’t too much of a bother (we could hear load music but we didn’t care.) the bathroom facilities were really nice and well maintained. Not bad place to stop at all.

Beautiful and clean sites

Many available campsites, some with tables, and this campground. First come first served. I was there in mid October and there were only a few other campsites taken. Lovely place and pretty quiet at night even though it's close to the hwy.
