When we arrived to the gate on June 1, the first day the campground was supposed to be open. It was unmanned and signs were posted that the campground was closed, that there was no trash service, and that the dump station was unavailable. Mind you, we had reservations that were made months in advance. There were many other RVers who were visibly upset as were we. We made numerous phone calls to the Seward Ranger District and other forest service numbers, but it was a Saturday, so they went unanswered. We saw most campers drive away. We decided to drive up to the campground as the gate was open. We went to our reserved site and enjoyed a nice quiet weekend. Only one or two other campers took a chance like us. However, the pit toilets had not been pumped and were over full. The bathrooms were disgusting and the campground had not even been open since last season. I finally got a call a few days later from Seward Ranger District. He said he thought the campground was open - it should have been, he said - but someone must have forgotten to take the closed signs down. I said there were many upset people who could have possibly come from a long way off who drove away without a campsite. He didnt seem too concerned and said hed check into it. The whole experience was uncalled for and almost ruined our trip. All because someone forgot to take down the closed signs. Also I dont understand why the toilets hadnt been pumped and the bathrooms cleaned. Unacceptable to say the least!!!

Loved the location and the size of the campsites. However, many, including mine, were configured backwards to most RV motorhome and trailers. Essentially, the picnic tables and fire rings were on the opposite side of the entrance and exits for RVs. This made for an awkward layout. I had to go against one-way sign/loop to enter my campsite correctly. This also meant backing up for 50 meters to exit the campgrounds. There also needs to be some trimming of trees and branches to help avoid damage to RVs and trailers. Aside from this serious aspect, I loved the site and location.

I would only return if certain sites were available.
