This campsite offers a peaceful retreat, perfect for unplugging from the digital world. Visitors appreciated the cozy cabin, surrounded by nature with a soothing creek nearby and fascinating fossil hunting opportunities. While the generator and amenities were generally reliable, a few guests mentioned minor issues that didn’t detract from their stay. Overall, it's an ideal spot for those seeking solitude with easy access to nearby attractions.
