We reserved site #19 but it was too narrow for our rig. The site had a great view and would have been good if not for how narrow it was. We ended up with #64. Beautiful site with a memorable sunset. Not much shade but we went in October so not really an issue. I would give the campground 5 stars if it weren’t for their very outdated bathrooms and showers. They definitely need updating beginning with some lights! I went in on a cloudy day and it was dark in there.

The ants were annoying, and I didn’t care that wasn’t a designated tent area in the campsite. But I made it work and I had the most beautiful view of the sunset. The hiking trail between parks was nice, but the scenic route needs to be cleaned up some, I questioned myself a few times which way I needed to go because I couldn’t see the path. Overall I can’t complain about how peaceful this place was, along with the views.
