So beautiful, quiet and peaceful, and clean. Any person we came across was pleasant (read: this place attracts good vibes). Always a good visit.

We camped here overnight with our Cub Scouts, and overall, it was a very good experience. We utilized Site 2, as it was higher and drier after recent rains. Both sites have a convenient gravel road that can be used with Ranger permission to drop of a trailer/supplies. Site 2 was surrounded by trees, but is in a clearing, so you can see the night sky, and not worry about falling branches in wind. It was great that plenty of firewood is included in the permit, and the fire pit area has built in seating. As many have said, the site is surrounded by three railroads, with the closest being about a hundred yards to the north. Be prepared for train horns. Also, this is in the flight path for airports, so those will be going overhead every 15 minutes (though definitely easier to ignore). Also, be prepared that the outhouses are very "primitive". They are clean in the sense that the surfaces are cared for, but be prepared for some strong odors. Also, the toilet stalls have dividers, but no doors, so plan ahead if you want some privacy.

If you have scouts, this is a must to camp. Clean, easy access and the trails are great to walk

There is plenty of room for a large group and the sites are tucked away from the rest of the park. A pavilion is located on site if the weather turns or a large group needs to sit together. There is firewood provided too! The only negative would be the proximity to the train tracks and frequency of trains that pass through the night. Otherwise a great place to camp, hike and fish!

This is a great youth camping spot. Our Scouts BSA troop felt very welcome. The campsite and park are very well maintained. They drain well, too. In spite of heavy downpours the night before the site was not very muddy. We'll be back.
