Great group site except the water wasn’t turned on even though the forest service said it was on when I called just a few hours before I arrived. Having an unplanned dry camp (nearest water was 8 miles away) for a large group created a crisis.

This place was very spacious. There was no water however each spot was very pretty. And it’s well worth the money.
