I loved going to this place as a kid with my family. We also did quite a few outings with Boy Scouts. It was always really fun. I'm not too sure how it is today. But if it's anything like it used to be, it's a great place to go camping.

Hidden gem. This place is awesome. Staff was spectacular! Cleanest rest rooms I've ever seen in a campground! …

Beware of Site 30! This is a beautiful campground. Clean restrooms. And almost every site we saw was large and shaded. Unfortunately our site had no trees, just a large bush, that's it. The same was true for the "campsites" in the same row. My personal belief is that the space would be better suited as a playground area. We were hammock camping and didn't realize this when booking. Otherwise, it would have been a great place to visit. Great hiking trails surrounding the campground.

It's a popular Campground so fcfs sites go quick. Checkout is at 2pm so that might be the right time to arrive.

How many adults are allowed per campsite? I have a small camper. We are all senior citizen women and need to also put a tent on the site...is that ok? There will only be a total of 4-5 of us. We have never had a problem at any other campground.

Mary Ann Shoaf | Jan 29, 2020

I personally have not had a problem as long as you have everything on the pad area. You can call the store and talk to them also. They are great people.
