Campground was nicely maintained, bargain priced, and very quiet. There were vacant sites even over a nice-weather Labor Day Weekend. Virtually all sites are pull-through. Fine if you can’t backup your rig, but very exposed- no tucking back amongst the trees typical of nice campgrounds with back in spaces. We found the area itself not particularly compelling. Not much in the way of hiking or biking opportunities. Not much in the way of natural resource spectacles, historical sites, nor interesting small towns. Nice enough for what it is, but a couple of days was plenty.

This is our second stay at Rollways campground within a few years. It is very pleasant, quiet and well maintained, although we attempted to walk the trail that leads to the picnic area and there were a few large trees that were blocking the path that had fallen. Other than that the bathroom vaults were kept clean and site 15 was very spacious for two tents and our large group. The black top drive around the campground is nice as well, the kids brought their scooters to ride, it was perfect.
