Not very big and very limited slots. Not a great place to isolate yourself from the others and there was limited areas to walk around, especially with dogs. The location was pretty good and close to Salida.

Our stay was short, but great! We texted the morning of our check in to see if there was anyway we could shower earlier in the day, prior to our check in time, as our previous campground didn't have their showers open during our stay there. They were beyond accommodating and were even able to let us check in early in general. The bathrooms and showers were very clean and well stocked. We also needed to do laundry at this point in our week long journey. The laundry facility and equipment were well kept and clean. We didn't have enough quarters, of course, but they were wonderful enough to open their general store to get us some. Our 3 girls had fun on the playground while they waited for the laundry to be done. Highly recommend this campground if you are in the area.

What a fantastic campground! We had a wonderful spot for our travel trailer and had room to put up a tent for our son and his girlfriend. The lady who ran the store was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed having the food truck right there, it was a pleasant surprise and they had amazing food. The bathrooms were clean, which is always a plus at a campground and unfortunately so many have nasty bathrooms. We will definitely stay there again!
