That's not really up to par.
However, the campground itself was very nice, and the forest there is beautiful!
I do have some criticism on the cleanliness of the campground. There is a host who checks reservations, and who sweeps the bathrooms and puts toilet paper out (he has no key to toilet paper holders so just stacks it on the bar). However, the bathrooms were never wiped down or washed during the entire week we were there, and the risers were getting pretty gross. Having been a host for a concessionaire in a different state and forest, the cleanliness of the bathrooms were a priority for us. The rules on the bathrooms also stated you were supposed to clean your campsite when you leave it (we did), but most do not. Lots of little bits of trash everywhere, and if the fire ring was full, people had obviously cleaned them, but dumped the ashes close by. Sad to see. I realize the USFS doesn't charge much for the night ($5 is really cheap), but people have no clue how to "leave no trace" at that price. Perhaps charge more, pay host & forest service workers more to maintain a cleaner campground.
