An Outstanding Forest Service Campground

The road leading to the camp site from Wardensville was in excellent condition all the way to the camp site. There are e total of 9 campsites.

Most sites have a paved parking platform and then a second tier for the camp site. All sites are quite large and include picnic tables, fire rings and large tent platforms.

The campsite itself is beautifully wooded. Each campsite is mostly secluded from the rest of the park.

The campground has vaulted toilet and communal garbage receptical. There is a large day use area. There are several trails that intersect with the campsite ànd day hikers are a common site.
