Peaceful and Quiet

Great campground! The sites were really well spaced out and felt quite private. Close to lots of of great hikes as well.

Great access for snowmobiling

We rented a snowmobile for our family of 4 and had a beautiful sunny day in the snow. We stayed in our truck and camper in the parking lot after all the snowmobile rigs left. No facilities but secluded and scenic.
