Very nice, bear box included with no bears. There was a raccoon. Nice staff and bathrooms a short walk. Good beginners camping.

The building itself was closed with no signs anywhere, so I'm not even sure you can go here other than camping. But I would not camp here. Way too many ticks! It's a cute area, though, with lots of nature and birds, birds, birds!!

This area is off-limits (closed) unless you are there with a park ranger, or sanctioned camping group. You are not allowed to enter this area to wander around or hike!
