4 of the sites are larger and comfortable with a 25’ camper, others are smaller. This campground is significantly larger than mentioned in another review suggesting some sites are 20x20. The majority of the sites are nonetheless smaller in size.
Clean and adjacent to a small stream. There is a 2 mile gravel road leading to the campground that can be very dusty.
There are a number of pines overhead that can leave pine sap droppings. Verizon is nonexistent and I imagine other providers are the same.
Hergy would stay here again

The campground is very clean. Has pit toilets, fire ring and nice tables. The problem is 15 sites on an acre. Sites average 20' x 20' and most are in the sun. You bump into your neighbors. With a full campground this place can get noisey. There is a hiking trail across from the campground and a creek to fish in. Site 15 is closest to the creek with 1 neighbor site beside you. Site 9 has no close neighbors. And they both offer shade. No one has phone service.
