Beautiful campground! It was quiet, beautifully laid out with easily walkable roads, a path along the creek, and well kept grounds. Also, yes it has vault toilets but these are legit the cleanest vault toilets I have ever seen. They didn’t even smell and were cleaner and better smelling than most flushable campground toilets. We didn’t have cell service (T-Mobile) but that’s understandable.

Great basecamp to explore the BigHorns. Clean bathrooms, friendly hosts. Enjoyed all the humming birds around the camp. Had moose browsing nearby while having breakfast every morning. Just a beautiful area.

One of our favorite CG on mtn. Developed with central water, pit toilets, tables and fire-rings; no HU. Lots of moose and wildlife to enjoy. Several sites for 40'+. Just off hwy so a bit of road noise. NO cell service for 15+ miles in these mountains .. good or bad depends on your perspective. Lucy moosy and Daffy calfy kept us corralled for 3 days!
