Really nice USFS campground. Well maintained grounds. Dump station is nicely laid out, has rinse water with proper hose fitting to allow for use of flush systems. Also fresh water fill at the dump station for filling potable water tank in your RV. There are a few other spigots around the camp, but purposely not set up for hose attachment, so as to discourage folks from running hoses to their parked RVs. The hosts have been great, both the regular ones and the alternate. We decided to stay an extra night, and will make this a stop in the future.

Host Wes and Virginia were awesome! But on there days off the co-host Tony which we never meet was no were to be found and he did not keep the bath house cleaned up or stocked with toilet paper. Host days off was on Wednesday and thursday so make sure you shower before than and bring your own tp paper. Host gets 5 stars for all the work they do!

Stayed at site 2, Friday - Sunday, all sites are paved, fairly level, some more so than others. Nicely wooded, not too dense, enough to find shade at any time during the day. We were there at the middle of July, flies were pretty thick, recommend having a screen house for outdoor dining. Facilities need attention, while we were there, 2 of 4 shower rooms were out of service, the others apparently were not familiar with either the cleaning crew or bleach. You’ll probably end up using your own camper shower and toilet. Good water fill station and dump stations!

Great place to stay at either short or long term.
We stayed at spot #10 for 3 days (4/20,4/21 & 4/22/19) in our 39’ 5th wheel. The sites don’t have water hook up so if you need water, you have to pull around to the dump area and fill up your water tank.
The bathrooms are well kept
The host Jeff is awesome.
The walking trail is great and the long loop is about 1.5 miles.

Awesome, awesome, awesome, stayed here several times this year so far. It is by far my favorite of the locations I have stayed in the past. Family friendly

Very nice Forest Service campground, 50/30 amp electric with newish dump station and potable water to fill tanks.
Sites are nicely spaced with narrow paved area to park RV, patio area dirt with fire pit and table.
Sites are semi shaded by varies large trees which made for poor satellite reception.Verizon cell service was good
Park was heavily used while we were there so reservations would be best.They have 4 first come Sites they were in constant use while we were there.
I found the bathhouse to be clean.
If you do not have reservations and need to register on site you would need cash or check as it is self register by filling out registration envelope and depositing fee in an Iron Ranger located by camp host site.
Location as reported in earlier reviews is great, basic services very close by

Nice paved electric sites! We really enjoyed the proximity to a lot of different things to do from this campground. Hiking and two State Parks within an hour of here as well. The campground itself was kept nicely, however, the bathrooms were not. The facilities were in good working order, but bathrooms were constantly either out of toilet paper or soap, also the showers were pretty dirty, and didn't seemed to be cleaned the entire 3 nights we were there. Would stay at again, but will try the other National Forest campground first. Giving it a 3 solely based on the cleanliness/stocking of the restrooms, if that were remedied 4 or 5 stars would be in order!

Stayed here 3 nights in Feb. 2017, including over part of Veteran's Day weekend. Great location, no trouble getting a site without a reservation. Virtually emptied out by Mon. night. Recently renovated by USFS - but too bad they didn't add water at each campsite. Only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the restrooms didn't get cleaned even one time during our entire stay. I expect better than that if I'm paying $30+ per night.

This has always been one of our favorite campgrounds. the spots are well spaced and all naturally wooded. most of the ground cover is grass and pine needles. spots are paved and sized to accommodate full families and pets. the value of its proximity to coastal attractions goes without saying. We do recommend reserving early through reserveamerica.com as this is always a popular campground. They do keep 4 sites as FCFS but they are almost always taken. spots do not have water, sewer or cable and I don't believe there is WiFi but it doesn't factor into my ratings as we don't need any of those amenities. RV sites do have 20/30/50 amp power. Potable water is available in close proximity to most sites, dump station is new and great, and bath facilities are exactly what one expects from state/fed campgrounds - very utilitarian but functional.
