Really great campground! The bathrooms were clean but like all pit toilets, smelly. There were A LOT of mosquitos so wear bug spray or have bug nets. My dog enjoyed the stream right next to the campsite. The roads are a little rough getting to it but nothing impassable. There is no service for Verizon at least. Definitely would recommend this campground!

Great camping spots to be found along the road to camp site. I was tired so I’m stopped by a wonderful rock formation. Very quiet. Dirt road is a bit washboardy but fine for any kind of vehicle. Weather perfect. I’m going to sleep with a stream babbling in the background.

Didn't make it all the way to the campgrounds. It was closed. Although, got as close as 1.2 mi.away. The whole area is astonishingly beautiful.
