Nice little campground near lakes

Smallish beautiful campground. Site 9 but sites 4, 5, 12 good too. 1 is private but away from toilets. Nice view down the valley to Electric Lake. Decent distance to Scofield. Relatively quiet but sites are fairly close together. 

Food aside: Ate Knorr rice with chicken, spiced it up, and Hatch tortillas for dinner. Also Sprouts Hatch M&C with Wal Mart chicken packet and Old El Paso ranch sauce, both good.

Beautiful But Tight Fit

This is a beautiful campground that is close to many lakes. Navigating through the campground is very tight with large boulders and logs inconveniently placed. It took much longer than usual to back our 32 foot trailer into our site. I wouldn’t recommend anything longer than 32’ at this camping regardless of what the site says unless you’re staying at the group site.
