“Great stopping point. Tons of grab and go meals, just add it water food, hiking on the go snacks, water, beverages and more. Whether camping here, or taking a short or long hike, they have what you’ll need. Nice staff too. Showers were all clean and easy to use with a coin system. Campground is well maintained, courteous people, easy access to the trails nearby. We hiked fairyland loop, and went counter clockwise from the starting point, so we could stop here for water, restrooms, and essentials before our 8 mile hike.”
