Reservations only, non reserved sites can be taken for only 1 night at a time. Sites are large and mostly level, restrooms are well maintained. Couple of swim spots up the trail. It's not prohibited to swim but discouraged since people drown often in the raging river. The safer swim spot is at Paradise Creek just a tad further up past the bridge

To get there turn off the main generals highway across the from hospital rock picnic area. The road is small, unmarked and easy to miss. Go in about 1-2 miles and you'll be there. Also it's pretty warm here compared to other sites in the park since it's lower in elevation. Lots of big families here as well
