Quiet, accessible, variety for all

this was my best spot with my girls (8m and 2 yrs) on our adventure. It was clean, quiet, accessible and all of the sites had what was promised. Elk next to our campsite was fun.

There were a lot of sites outside on a field (which I think is weird), but my site and many are in the trees. The website is good for explanations on privacy and site set up. Good space between the sites
