Overall Campground Rating: very good.

What stood out? Very large campground with long walk from new sites to store. Noise from Rte. 15 traffic would be bothersome in tent or pop-up. Restrooms pretty clean. Trash collection at public receptacles neglected throughout CG. Lot of seasonals, one of which was notable because of failure to clean up after his large dog.

Owners and Staff: Staff was quite courteous.

Camp landscaping and surroundings: Campground borders US 15 highway which generates a lot of traffic noise. Otherwise, the landscaping was very good with shaded sites throughout.

Good sites: Most of sites in older section were good. Did not check out new section. Bad sites: Sites close to highway (west side of CG).

Cell Phone Service: No problem with cell phone service (Verizon)
