Comments:
Nice spot to spend the night.
24 site campground with 30/50 amp service and water hookups on gravel parking surface.
Overnight pull-through sites can accommodate the longest rig.
Large area with grass areas to walk dogs and get exercise.

There were only three campsites available during our visit. All of the other campsites were occupied by long-term residents or transient workers. The camp-host occupies site #1 and collects the camping fee. It rained the night were were there and the water pooled up quite a bit on our site, but the gravel pad area remained firm, so it was no problem departing the campsite the next morning.
