The campground #7 was okay, #5 should even be a campsite or should be a discounted rate as it’s right on the road. I’ve been camping here for 4 years this is the first year the camp host drive around and patrolled the parking — we were camped in a spot that could fit a trailer but had a tent so we had three extra cars parked in our parking lane — not bothering anyone - it was friends who came up to say high and spent a few hours they were not staying overnight. She wanted $10 per car even though they were parked on our specific site and NO ONE was there!!! Thats ridiculous! We already paid over $200 to camp!

We also had a 3 ft rattlesnake roll through camp Friday night. We told the camp host and she said “yeah we had a bigger one last night” she made no effort to alert the nearby campers who had young toddlers and dogs with them who were running around in the brush!!! So we went around and let people know ourselves so that no one would get hurt and we ushered the snake out off the way across the MTN side.

I won’t be coming back here if the parking is going to be patrolled so crazily. Been camping there for 4 years and we have never had an issue — if it gets full people go down to the lower lot. We do fine patrolling ourselves and a few per car is nuts if they aren’t spending the night! Going elsewhere next year! (Mostly because of the rattlesnakes!!!)
