The entrance station to the campground contains an Iron Ranger, a self-pay station.

Date of visit: Apr 2011

Plenty of sites to choose from upon our mid-April weekday arrival. Here we are on site B-5. I managed to find a hole through the forest canopy for our TV satellite dis

Sites in the B and C loops offer electric hookups. Water can obtained at the bathhouses and at the dump station. Showen here are sites B-12 and B-11.

Site B-13. The dogwoods were in full bloom at the time of our visit.

We were surprised to see large piles of split wood at nearly every campsite, such as here on B-20. We learned the park recently had a number of standing dead trees removed and decided to leave the wood for campers.

The non-electric sites are a tad more rustic without pavement. This is A-19.

The non-electric sites are found in loops A, D, E, F and G. Site A-4 is a large sunny site.

More stacks of wood in front of sites C-3, C-5 and C-7.

Site E-4 had the most wood - one could camp here for a quite a while and not run out of wood.

The two sunniest sites are E-16 and E-17.

Site E-16 - very nice!

Site C-23 is typical of the shade vs sun at most sites.

Sites B-16, B-15 and B-13.

There are three modern bathhouses in the campground. Hot showers are in separate individual rooms.

Here's a general overview of the campground.
