Kickapoo was a nice surprise. Very nice campground. I first tried to use non electric site $10 but found my battery to be bad. Moved to electric site $20. Very nice and quiet. Host was very good especially when I told her I needed electric spot. I paid the extra put it in the self pay spot when I left

Would not recommend staying weekends in the summer. Weekdays you will have the place to your selves. I dry camped . Shower were clean but very old. Bring your own TP, the moisture and humidity makes everything wet . They will delivery wood - 5$ for a bundle. Each camp spot has a picnic table and a grill pit. Lots of hiking trails for mountain biking or hiking. Lake access you will have to drive there. Dogs allowed - super pet friendly. Camp store - has very little to no supplies . make sure you bring everything you need to closet fuel stops is a 20min drive away

It's a nice place with plenty of outdoor adventures. Hiking, kayaking, floating are all good options here. There are also multiple playgrounds for kids, shower houses, and wildlife most mornings and evenings

This was a salt quarry about 100 years ago, and now it is a series of beautiful ponds. After long days of driving on our way home to Virginia from Seattle, we found plenty of park roads to explore on our bikes. The next morning we rented SUPs at one of the ponds ($10 per hour) where you can also rent kayaks, next door to the bistro/ice cream parlor. A lot of folks fishing. Mountain biking trails. Sites are spread out with lots of trees. Several playgrounds. We could hear the trucks on the highway in the distance at night, but the white noise of the fan and ear plugs blocked it. A little confusing getting back on 74 east, so be careful.
