The campground was so beautifully peaceful and quiet - I was surprised there were not more people there! I was only able to stay one night but took a bike ride around the campground the evening I arrived, observing a number of additional loops that were not currently available for camping. As I was leaving the following morning, I chatted with Ranger Devora who was very friendly and interestingly enough a snake expert - she was able to share some interesting information, including how the campground was only able to reopen a couple years prior and due to resources they were in process of trying to bring more of it to a useful state. My only ask is that some consideration be given to adding some electrical hook ups is that would’ve made my stay even better.
