Horrid Camp hosts!!!

Hosts make up rules. and are angry people. yelled at an 80 year old woman on her birthday!! they could nit give any reference to a rule they made up at will. stated there is no rule book. it's a public space any rule should be posted or backed by a statute or at least a clear rule could be cited. non happened. they were rude to other parties as will about parking. These people do no belong in a public space with any authority. Worst experience I have ever had in public space.

Wonderful Family Cook Out Location

This is a beautiful picnic area. Lots of shade. Nice tables. Fire pit and grill. Hiking trails nearby. The parking lot is a short distance to the picnic area. Mostly private.
