Very pretty site with a good bit of visual privacy. Some massive pines keep watch over the campground. Vaults recently emptied and hosts make an effort to keep the place nice and were very hospitable. We had a peaceful time, and mostly remember the aspens rustling and stream chuckling in the wee hours. However, the traffic noise can be a lot, especially as there were a lot of motorcycles coming through every night at bed time.

This spot has a lot to offer. It is by the road but other than that it is perfect! Host Carrie was a delight and super helpful with advice and hiking recs. The creek is accessible, and a cool refreshing splash at the end of the day was awesome to have on site. Bathrooms were super clean and sites were well maintained.

It would have been nice to have a good walking path to the creek. The grass was knee high.

Right off the road, can be a little noisy. The creek is pleasant background noise. Campsites are pretty close to each other, and the road is a little rough but not horrible. Bathrooms were vault toilets, total of 4 stalls at the campground. Bring toilet paper just in case it runs out, it was not serviced every day. Only trash can is the large dumpster. The trees were very nice and the ground was flat and comfy.

The forest circus employee who is supposed to ensure a safe amping experience drive too fast and nearly hit one of my kids. He apologized then proceeded to threaten to ticcket us for having part of our campsite outside the spaces "boundaries" even though we had both sites rented next to each
other. That plus the loud traffic noise and disgusting bathrooms. DO NOT STAY
