“Good for Tenting, Less so for RVing. ”

The road leading up to the park headquarters, as well as its parking lot, is smooth asphalt. That's where they spent all of the money. The campground area is in sad shape. If you are in a trailer or RV, you will be lucky to find a level spot you can fit in with the exception of the handicap spots, which are very well maintained. If you are tenting I think it's a fine location. The grass and trees look to be in good shape. The dump station looked to be in decent shape though from the outside the bathrooms seemed to be in disrepair. The park headquarters is only a couple of hundred feet away and is in great shape. Maybe you can use the bathrooms there.

This location does not take reservations but it does not appear to fill up. There is a large slough (swamp) that had a very pretty sunrise. There are flush toilets but no showers or hot water. The sites are large and spacious but a little uneven. There are a lot of shady sites, a few with water view too. We would stay again.
