FCFS for the WIN
We rolled in around 9 am Friday morning fingers crossed, hoping to snag a FCFS spot. We did! We weren’t prepared for the complete lack of water filling capabilities, so had to drop a couple chairs to hold the opening, and go find a place to fill up. After toppping off in town at the Elks lodge, we settled in. B29 had electric and opened up at the end to a secluded meadow, which was perfect for doing some one on one training with our huskies (we travel with 2 floofs).

FCFS For the WIN
We rolled in around 9am Friday morning, fingers crossed for an electric FCFS spot, and BINGO we got lucky. B29 for our spontaneous weekend away was great. Camp hosts were friendly and helpful. We failed to anticipate the complete lack of a water filling station, had to drop chairs to hold the 1 opening, and headed out to the elks lodge in town to top off before setting up.
B29 backs into a secluded meadow which was quiet, and perfect to spend time working with. Our Huskies. (We travel with 2).

Labor Day Weekend
Huge sites, clean bathrooms, great camp hosts, and tons of hiking trails. You can hike to Baker Beach from the A loop. The entrance is near the group site by the bathrooms. The hike is approximately 2.4 miles one way.
We stayed in site A11 that had a 30 amp hook up. There are no water hook ps or dump sites unfortunately and not all the sites have electric.
Campground is about 5 miles from Florence.
