I feel a bit uneasy about writing this review, but I believe it’s worth sharing. **The Pros:** This campground offers an exceptional experience. It has only 11 campsites, five of which are truly ideal for camping. Positioned near the stream and across the camp road, you’ll find serene spots nestled under beautiful trees where you can listen to the soothing sound of water flowing by. One of the most impressive aspects of this campground is its tranquility. It’s a perfect place to unwind and escape the chaos of daily life. The campground is best for individuals or small groups of up to four people, ensuring a peaceful environment. Remember that this is not a party campground and is inappropriate for family reunions.

It's gorgeous down here. Just remember to bring mosquito protection. There are lots of bathrooms and there are a decent amount of bears. Not ideal for rock climbing.

It's gorgeous spot, but $33 is nuts for a USFS campground. Thank concessionaire outsourcing for the insane prices to enjoy OUR public lands.

Very clean campground in beautiful setting. Be nestled away under the trees. Have privacy from your neighbors, since sites are spaced nicely. Follow our adventures @slystrx

Make sure you go only for reading books , and enjoying the nature without talking or making any noise , its a good place if you are 80 and plus , because whatever you do , play music , talk , or play a game , leave lights out ,turn on a generator they will complain , horrible and most of the people are looking at your race here and color , they told us we don't want you people here you guys are Armenians and loud , after that i wouldn't stay at all , its the new library after covid 19 .
