This is a wonderful campground with terrible access. As I pulled our supplies along the 1.1 mile trail that consists mostly of tree roots and rocks, I wondered who this site was for? Really lazy backpackers? You have to haul everything in on your back like it's some remote spot, but it's only a mile, so again, who is the demo here? Aside from the horrifying trek in and out (don't bring kids, they need too much stuff for this kind of site) the campsite and grounds are fantastic. My 4 stars are for the ranger that registered me, the really nice camp sites, the bathroom, and especially the firepit with grill and included firewood bundle!

Great campground that is far enough from the car to feel like backpacking but still close to home. Great for kids who are just getting into backpacking. As for the sites, the toilet is convenient, and the sites are nice and spread out. The only water is the Eno itself which isn't too far from the sites so bring your water purifier if you don't pack in all your water. You can hear I-40 and road traffic from the campsites. Do NOT!!!!! camp here if there is a chance of heavy rain. None of the 3 sites had any drainage out of the tent pad. We woke up to our tent surrounded by a moat 1-2" deep.
