Stayed Thur-Sun. Music from wedding venue was ridiculously loud each night...drumming, beating, rapping plus some lady on a microphone MCing. Classy. This went on for hours every night until after 10. What's the point of quiet hours in campground. Deal breaker ruining tranquility of park visit. I would not have booked if I had known. Won't be back.

Despite the music from the Della Terra wedding venue being so loud both nights we could hear every word of every song and the fact that our neighbors stole our firewood because “the ranger said it was ok” I really liked this campground! HIGHLY recommend earplugs if you want to get any sleep before 11pm on Saturday if there’s a wedding on because Della Terra will make sure you hear the entire DJ set. Clean bathrooms, running water, and the little convenient shop on site was a great amenity. Very wooded which I also liked!

It was just a quick overnight, but we had such a great time! We were lucky enough to see an elk up close. The view was absolutely picturesque. We stayed at campsite 47, and the bathrooms were very clean, and there was plenty of water.

There is drinking water available in the bathrooms. They were pretty clean and nice. The camping area is pretty vast and wide. There are flush toilets which was amazing and sinks with water.
