dzoanna n ★ 1 · Oct 2025Didn't even have picnic table and you pay over 100$ per night. For what? It was the worse camp site I have ever been and I camp atleas 4 times a year
Shun S ★ 5 · Oct 2025Large campsite, clean bathroom with flushing toilets, convenient location.
Kellie W ★ 3 · Sep 2025Gorgeous setting! Bring ear plugs at night for the car alarms (people set off to scare away the bears), and coyotes howling. Nice that they have bathrooms and showers but they are heavily used.
