Stayed here for one night on our way out west and really enjoyed it. The campground was clean, well maintained, and easy to get in and out of — no hassle at all. It was quiet and peaceful, which made for a great overnight stop. Just a heads-up: there aren’t a lot restaurants nearby, so plan ahead for meals. Would definitely stay here again for a quick stop along the way.

Stayed for 2 weeks. Was a great spot. Definitely have to try it out if you havnt. They have 2 cabins. And 4 different camping kinds from ⛺️ tent, to just electric, electric and water, or the ultimate package - electric, water and sewer..

We were just here for the one night, but it was a great stay. The pull-through sites were large (I think 60 feet) and shaded. One of the great things about this site is the layout of the pull-throughs. The sites are alternated directions so we were able to sit outside at their picnic tables and not stare at the sewer hoses of our neighbors. We really wish more campgrounds adopted this feature. The hosts/owners were polite and check-in was easy. We would definitely stay here again if we were passing through.

What a great spot to pull off the road for the night. Right off the expressway so it's easy on and off. First campground that I've been to that they have buddy sites... When we pulled in we were sharing the same site with the camper next to us and our doors were facing each other. 😳🤟😊 The shower house and bathrooms were very well kept and a nice hot shower is always a plus but there were no handicap showers for us bigger folks. we had a chance to enjoy some music on the guitar with the folks in the park it was a lot of fun on our way out west... A forever memory

Drove here from Helena, MT. I was exhausted & failed to properly book a reservation. The owner kindly worked her magic to put us in a site. The place is clean, manicured & kept up to date. There were full & partial hookups with long pull thru gravel sites with freshly mowed sites. The bathhouse was comfortly amazing, very clean & efficient with separate stalls & hot water. We paid $41 after taxes for the night. Check out the painted rocks out front of the office.
