All good graded gravel with speed bumps. you CANNOT get a tractor trailer down it with no sweat. A lot of the roads are very steep with switchbacks. Some sites are kinda short - tell them how long you are overall. The popup I was using is 22ft popped and could barely get a car in front of it longways...forget about the truck...

Personal Comments:
This was a choice to be close to the 7-points marina/launch.
This place caters to Permis, has very few transient sites and if they are full on an upcoming weekend, they will not answer the phone - potentially losing an advance booking!
The sites seemed kinda small - since all have WES, tents and popups go in the same place. The popup I was using is rather large so it was a tight fit. I was worried the fire ring (which I moved) was too close.
you will be able to participate in your neighbors conversation without raising your voice.
I walked the campsite when there and the permis are better spaced out - but the whole place clings to a cliff.
Good location to the 7pts recreation area - but you cannot park your boat there - no room.
