We grabbed a last minute spot here on Memorial Day weekend. The campround was good. One of the water pumps wasn't working so we had to walk a bit to the one that was working. Firewood was dry and we got a lot for $5. The ranger even came around and made a last call for firewood before he left for the night. This area seems to be popular with the ATV and UTV crowd. I think that is why despite perfect weather we had the hiking trails to ourselves mostly.
