My husband and I had a blast fishing here. We caught lots of bluegill! Almost every cast something was caught. The camp hosts, Larry and his wife, were extremely nice. Even brought us firewood and ice after hours on our first night here. Also, pet friendly, including cats!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We have a 2 year old and it was a nice campground with a kiddo. No playground but great areas to run and get energy out.

Each site has a fire pit and a regular size wooden picnic table. Firewood was available even after hours too. By the office, there are covered picnic tables that are lit up at night and fans for summer time. Very very clean restrooms and shower areas. Showers are individual rooms with a toilet, shower and sink in them. Restrooms are a separate building from showers and they too are all separate rooms inside the building. Super nice helpful staff. Would def stay again.

We loved our stay here. The location is right off the highway and close to everything in a beautiful valley. The RV sites have both 50 and 30 hookups, an easy pump out and are easy in and out. The bathrooms and the shower house have been recently renovated. Everything is super clean and more improvements are on the way. I was working remote and had no issues video conferencing and working, which... We loved our stay here. The location is right off the highway and close to everything in a beautiful valley.

The best thing about this place are the people. So nice and accommodating. Sandra and Lisa along with every other person we met were super friendly. We’ll definitely be back.
