A perfect family campground

I hesitate to write a review only because I don’t want this campground to get overcrowded. This was the perfect campground in our opinion! It was easy to find a campsite on a Saturday night in August, the bathrooms were clean, the dirt road in was smooth, there weren’t pesky mosquitos, grey jays or even squirrels around. The sites were spread out enough so that you didn’t feel like you were on top of each other and the picnic tables, fire pit and grills were all in good shape. A good mix of shade and sun on almost every site. We’ll be back!
