Strongly suggest 4WD for the dirt road

I visited this site the first week of April but I did not spend the night. When I arrived, I was the only one there and with rain expected, I did not want to get stuck there alone.

I initially missed the right turn onto the dirt road coming down the hill. The road in is a single lane dirt road with parts of it partially washed away. I would not want to drive on this in the rain. There are minimal turning points so if someone is coming in while you're coming out or vice versa, someone would have to reverse.

The campground itself was clean and well maintained. The bathroom was also clean and there was toilet paper.

Seems like a nice place to stay when its dry.
