Beautiful campsite, however, do pay attention to the site description about how it is on a heavy slope. We ended up sharing the small flat tent area with the campsite next to us.

Nice camp site, spacious bear boxes, well kept bathroom

The site was not bad, bigger than all the sites next to it. Yes it is steep but there is a flat area for at least 2 larger tents or 3 small single tents. The bench is leveled off. Parking area is next to it. The bathrooms were OK, flush and mostly not smelly at all because the doors and windows are open 24/7. There is a Grey water toilet dump on the side of the bathroom building along with a spigot over a toilet to drink from. I saw 2 bathroom buildings, don't know if there were more. They are a bit hidden in the center of the campgrounds. Not the best tasting water but it's available. Really smelly when the poop truck comes and get the waste. This camp was far enough from the bathroom to not smell, great choice for that aspect. There WILL be a bear coming at least once in the night looking for food if you stay longer than 3+ days. I heard the bear breathing at night but it's paws must have been really quiet walking around. It did not come again after the first night. I walked along the downed logs at the site towards the forest and saw PLENTY of wrappers and tin foil trail right behind this campsite only. It must have had a good meal here in the past and comes back often. Overall it's not bad if you're not afraid of black bears. There were a lot of no shows near us and along the Campground, a lot of people actually want to camp here and it's always booked full in the summer. These people who don't show up or cancel should be banned 1+ year, use their name and credit card to ban them. That is the worst part about reserving, NO SHOWS. Great for sleep though, quiet.

The individual camping slots are very irregular, some are quite big and the space among them sufficient but others are tinny and quite crowded among them. Same situation with the parkings. A little standarization would be amazing for a fairer experience.

There was a bear that visited our site and we had to scare away and the next day we talked to the ranger and they said this exact site is where the bears like to go. FYI

Not a flat site but still nice.
