What a lovey campground! We had site 22 which was plenty big enough for our big dome tent and a couple of hammocks. This is a quiet a remote campground and we absolutely LOVED it. It’s high up so very quiet at night, and surrounded by nature. Absolute bliss for people who love getting away from it all. Remote mean REMOTE, the nearest store is at least a half hour drive away, and there is no firewood for sale either. The toilets are kept spotlessly clean by the excellent camp hosts. There are no showers but plenty of running water and there’s a big dishwashing station. All site have a gravel pitch and fire pit with grill. Fellow campers were friendly and polite. The lack of massive ten ton trailers was very welcome too!

Best campground. Small off the beaten path and a great spot to see the sunset right up the road. Go to the picnic spot and take the trail. About 50 yards up there’s a clearing with benches for sunset.

Not so great for family camping with children. I slipped and fell in the grass on a hill at my campsite while I was holding my 6 month old. That's not the reason I say it's not family friendly though.. There is nothing close by hiking wise to do. When we arrived at camp there was a line going right over our fire ring for a tarp at a neighboring camp. The only good experience about that site was seeing all the Elk after it rained. And the clouds in the early morning. I would recommend Cosby Campround over this location any day. This may be a great camping spot for certain people, just not for me or my family.

There is so much I would like to say about this camping trip, but I will leave you with this, our campsite was 9 and we loved EVERY moment! The host were amazing and very helpful! Aside from showers this is a home away from home for us!!! We WILL be back and will bring the whole family!
