Good site (A54), no shade from morning to early afternoon, close to shower/toliet building. Outlet is great for biking.

The bathrooms at the END of the loop that campsites 51 and 54 are located are extremely hot inside. There has to be something wrong with the ventilation. There are small fans in the walls of both rooms but they do nothing to dissipate the heat in the rooms. It's almost impossible to be in those rooms during the day at any hour other than early in the morning around sun up. The rest of the day they are extremely hot inside.
We love that the campground has sites that are available on a first come first serve basis, however should the hosts not be on duty when one pulls in there's no way to tell which sites are available to pick from. The sites have no tags on the posts to indicate that a site is taken for the night. We found a site that was empty and set up. Once the host was back on duty an hour later we were lucky to find out that it was available. Kind of odd.
Other than that, the campground is clean, pretty, well laid out and the campsites are also very reasonably level. We stayed here two separate times during our travel within three weeks and will return if we are in the area.

Very nice hosts, very nice campsites. Grounds well cared for. Good cycling in the area. The reason we didn't give this 5-star rating is the requirement for reservations. We are not happy that the entire campground now requires reservations. We are spur-of-the-moment travelers who consider weather when deciding when and where to go. The reservation system doesn't really accommodate that. When we arrived there were several campsites open and available, but we had to wait until hosts were at admission booth to find out which could be occupied for more than one night.

Oh...if you come in late April, be prepared for ticks!

Extra large campsites and firepits and tables all in great shape. Clean and tidy too. (Loop A)
