Beautiful, secluded

Wonderful site. You are surrounded by old growth pine trees while camping in an old CCC base camp. Our site was right next to a small stream, which along with the wind in the trees made for a nice experience while falling asleep.

The tent hosts work hard to keep the site very clean and cared for.

We will be back.
