This is the best camping spot ever. The host, Marianne is very friendly and informative about the area. The pit toilets are the cleanest I've seen.

Meet th camp host Marilyn, a wealth of information. A very kind, and happy person. A rarity these days. This place isn't what I expected. Lots of hiking on trails that are well maintained. If you are any kind of bird watcher you will enjoy this place. The camp sites,15 I believe, are clean, and quite well spaced apart. Loads of privacy. I plan on staying th full 14 day limit mostly because of that. It looks like there are 3 vaulted toilets. From any campsite there is one close by. Obviously cleaned on a regular basis.

Do they allow primitive camping?

There's available land on the other side of the road that can be improved as additional camping sites but they may lack the funding to expand facilities. It's a shame because it wouldn't be that costly to accomplish. Guess we need to keep pushing congressmen to fund this improvement.

Laura Werner | Jun 25, 2021

Yes you can camp there currently, I had went last week and there was a couple of people there camping. Its not to crowded so I recommend you really go! Also its worth it since of the views during the day and at night you can see all the stars!
