I would have given it 5 stars but when we arrived at the campsite there was trash and cans in the fire pit. There were cigarette butts all over the ground. You could tell the camp hosts do not clean the sites when someone leaves.

Great campsite! One really nice thing for tent campers (like us) is that the tent camping area is more wooded, and set apart from the RV campsites - so you don't hear the endless drone of generators while you try and sleep. The sites are really nicely spaced out, so you're not on top of anyone. And the camp hosts were FANTASTIC. Top, top marks to them. Very well located to numerous hikes of varying grind, and tons of incredible scenery.

Clean and not stinky restrooms. Not busy during the week, so very quiet. Some road noise from the road to Sabrina & North Lakes during the day, but quieted down overnight.
