★★★★☆ 4.0 Alex R · Oct 2023

Great campground! The people are pleasant, it's usually quite, and the place is close to lots of cool trails. On the not so great side, there is no easy water access that I could find. Some of the electrical hookups don't work, and the toilets have quite a few dead bugs. There are also a LOT of stink bugs...at least when I was there on 10/11/23. Overall I'd recommend the campground, but bring your own toilet and a can of raid!

Small campground. No bath houses. The toilets are like an outhouse/portapotty. Be forewarned if you come here mid October. Our camper became infested with stink bugs during our stay. Got so bad that we had to leave early. (Our camper is a hybrid style travel trailer with canvas over the sleeping spaces. Other RVs did not seem to be so affected.)

Good for last minute reservations, but there was no one there to help with anything, just a little open booth thing with info inside. None of the bathrooms near us had plumbing, which you’d think is the bare minimum and no showers. Our site was not level at all but others looked fine. We came in October and I wish I was kidding but there were hundreds of stink bugs on our camper that only went away at night, but we couldn’t see any at any other camp sites??? Don’t know what was up with that. It seemed like my campsite and the one right next to it were being overrun with stink bugs, but anywhere else we went had none at all. Don’t know how to feel about the place because I didn’t enjoy my trip for various reasons but I couldn’t find anything particularly wrong with the campground other than

Campground was OK, but the whole place was covered in stink bugs, our camper had a stink bug infestation, it only has one bathhouse that has actual plumbing and it was pretty far away from all the campsites, and there was a giant sewage plant just in the campground, like nasty and there was weird orange stuff coming out of the sewer next to the one bathroom with plumbing all the other bathrooms are just basically holes in the ground with a toilet over the hole. the stink bugs covering every inch of everything we ever touched here and we cannot even go into our camper without a bunch of them flying towards the camper trying to get in, do not come here in the fall because there’s so many stink bugs. Overall, the place was fine, but the amount of stink bugs and the lack of plumbing made me re

Would be 5 * with a shower house or at least rest rooms. Nevertheless a lovely campground in a beautiful area.
