Large spaces at each campsite plus additional grassy areas. Well kept and quiet. However, no WiFi and poor cell service in the campground area. Very peaceful.

The campsites and restrooms need to be treated for ants. I had a wonderful quiet time otherwise

Quiet campground in good shape. Hiking nearby. My only complaint is that the dump station pip is too tall for a class B campervan.
