Nice location, more private than most things at the park (and much cooler!) Did not like how the RV's and trailers took over the road of the campground. Great bathrooms and dishwashing area.

Host was very friendly and helpful. Campsite and bathrooms were well cared for and clean. Only downside was an rv that had a wildlife repeller which emitted an obnoxious high pitched sound all evening and night.

The camping ground is surrounded by trees and bushes. The greenness offers a relaxing and comforting environment. Late midnight temperature might be lower than expected, so make sure to bring enough clothes.

There are two restrooms and several drinking water taps along the road. Utilities are clean. The only minor issue is that if unfortunately too many people starts to burn fire around you, the smoke can be annoying. I would advise to avoid campsites in the middle area.

Elks can be found on the road to the campsite. It was super awesome.

Be prepared for chilly temperatures. The place is cozy, with many friendly campers.
