The park seems to be aging and could use some TLC. It is in a nice location, though, with pretty views. Whatever you do, don't go down a road the wrong way. This was my first time here and I did it one time on accident. Hours later, the park host found me and was very stern with me about it. Honestly, his tone was a little unnecessary. It was an honest, one time mistake but he acted like I had done it over and over. He spoke to me like I was a child. I am all about respecting rules but he could have addressed is a more respectful manner.

excellent pad site on the side of the hill with great access to the bbq grill and fire ring. accessing grass to walk a dog was a challenge and the grass wasn't cut. Picking a different spot could be a better experience
