We made reservations way in advance. When we arrived, there was already a camper fully set up and apparently had been there for a while. The ranger “apologized” but obviously did not do their job properly because EVERY OTHER rec.gov site we have booked in the past made sure there was a reserved sign on each of our campsites. They should have gone though the reservation system and checked ahead for future reservations. Fortunately the person we were traveling with had the campsite next to us and there was enough room for both small campers. It was very frustrating.

There wasn't a tag that my site showing my reservation. An old reservation tag was posted on my site. Another camper was in my site when I arrived with no sign of leaving. I parked at the tent parking lot and gave them an hour to leave my reserved site. There wasn't anyone in #4 and no mention of a reservation. All the other sites had occupants - a rare occurrence. Later that day, a single lady showed up in site #4 and told me she had that site reserved until Friday morning. No sign of a reservation posted. She told me she travelled to Gowen Field to work each day and was sleeping in her car. Because there wasn't a notice of her reservation on the site and no camp host on duty, I told some campers that it was reserved before they were all set up. They assumed they could camp there because there wasn't any notice of it being reserved.
It was little annoying for me to have to "police" her site though I didn't want her to arrive after working to find someone else set up at her site.
One very positive thing, the toilet was very clean with plenty of toilet paper.
I camp 2 -3 times there a year.

Super easy place to get to and set up. It’s nice that there is trees between each spot as it makes you feel a little more separated. Beautiful views.

Really cool spot, however the pictures made it look like the spots were drive-up and they were not. Be aware these plots are for tents only. (Spots that are not for RV’s)
