Facilities

  • Notes:
    • The camp pads are wooded and provide some privacy.
    • The pads are mixed paved and gravel but fairly level.
    • Clean showers and restrooms were welcomed… during the pandemic, it seems that many services have been lost in some parks!
    • The lake associated with the park is not directly connected to the campground due to a road closure but is still accessible.
    • There is a playground & pool / pool house that was part of the CCC construction.
    • Yurts and tent camping sites are available.

What we liked / disliked

  • Notes:
    • Bring bird seed if allowed!
    • There were lots of birds to watch and the deer roamed day and night!
    • We were separated from other pads but the neighboring sites were close across the road.
    • The trails are not marked well… (A good Eagle Scout project!)
    • Recycling was available.
    • TV and cell service good 4G.
