Just what we were looking for in a campsite! Clean, check in/payment process was clear and precise, restroom was clean! Right off the Highway so we had wifi connection and access to town if we needed supplies. Would certainly return and will recommend to family and friends. 👍❤

Pretty spot, totally unimproved campground, primitive camping but inexpensive. Be aware the road down to campsites is very steep.
