Found By Accident

We found this campground as we were avoiding hurricane Nicholas. We didn’t have reservation which was a little bit on an issue as the campground does not accept payment on site. We made our reservation while parked at ranger gate shack. Cell phone reception (t-mobile) was spotty so this was more difficult than it should have been. Reservations are made at recreation.gov. Cost was reasonable, restrooms were functional but heavily used. We were one of only 5 campers in the campground on weekday but I spoke with another camper who said it fills up on the weekend. Campground right on the banks of beautiful reservoir. Watch out for creepy crawlers - found this guy in men’s room. Really enjoyed the antique stores in nearby Jefferson.
