“Bathrooms could have used some attention prior to our groups arrival. Other than that it was a good experience.”

Zach K 3 · Aug 2025 · Recreation.gov

“Awesome camp ground. Babbling creek flowing nearby. Huge open field. Cathey's Creek waterfall, right down the road. We will definitely come back. ”

Carmen P 5 · Aug 2023 · Recreation.gov

“Great time! Previous group left trash in the fire pit which we cleaned out, but other than that, it was perfect! ”
