Cons
FHU sites in wagon wheel configuration. Absolutely no privacy from other sites. Campsite fire rings placed weirdly which created confusion between campers as to which fire ring belong to which campsite.
Water pressure fluctuations constantly.

Never saw any park rangers or park security driving through campground; no interaction with Park Hosts.
No security gate closed overnight. L
imited Shade. Seems each FHU site had one tree.
One toilet facility for 20 campsites PLUS day users, except for pool users. One shower only in each Men’s and Women’s.
