Personal Comments:
We were looking for a place to stay for a nearby family reunion and this was the closest campground. We didn't have any problem getting a reservation two weeks out. There are quite a few seasonals, but most were fairly clean and well kept. The people here were extremely friendly and very accommodating. We plan on returning, especially since we didn’t have time for mdfiregal to take a trail ride.
Handed out "club cards" to two of the three Sunlines at the campground (they were all seasonals)
