Such an amazing beautiful place. Wildflowers were in full bloom. Easy to get there and was very quiet in the morning/during night. Only con was loud children in surrounding campsites but what can you do .

The good:
1) The campfire pit had a metal grate that could be placed on half of the firepit. We were able to put tin cups on it to warm up some hot cocoa. I wish we had brought more wood though - not much loose wood on the ground to use. And the firepit was the only cooking option on site (no standing grills for briquettes).
2) It is a very pretty area. Star gazing was spectacular - we even saw a shooting star.
3) The bathrooms had TP. I will say that. Cleanliness will depend on your fellow campers. Many people might prefer having a Lowe's 5-gallon bucket lined with a trash bag and a $10 toilet seat from Walmart's camping department to use instead though.
4) There is great cell phone reception and data was only moderately slowed (which is good to know for emergencies).
The bad:
1) At 5am (pitch black outside) some guy started walking up and down the gravel road that leads to all the campsites, while talking loudly about his interests and his awesomeness. He woke a lot of people up. A female camper asked him to quiet down, at which point the guy became argumentative with her. My point: we had no recourse to deal with this guy (especially when caring for kids) unless we were prepared for potential confrontation. In the heat of the moment we could not find a phone number for the park ranger to address the situation. If this middle-of-the-night idiot wanted to stir up trouble, there would be a lot of barefoot, PJ-wearing sleepy heads he could mess with. Lesson learned: know the number to call in the event of a problem.
2) The road that leads to the campsites is all gravel, and there are some hilly areas. Anyone walking or driving on it will be heard for decent distance. But also, we saw a mini van towing a small trailer get stuck on one of the smaller hills (the gravel was deep enough that it made it difficult for the van to get traction).

First off, Rae and George are amazing hosts!! That combined with the beautiful scenery, clean campsites, and easy trail access made up a wonderful week.

Very nice, large campsites spread out further apart than at some other campgrounds. Beautiful wildflowers and hiking trails. Sites including fire pits, tent sites and restrooms were very clean and well maintained and camp host was friendly and helpful. Overall a wonderful experience, would do again!
