Wilderness solitude it is not. Trucks hammering by on the 199 take care of that.You cant see them, which is cool, but if you get a site in the 30s you sometimes feel like the next thing you know one will come careening down the bank and run over your kids and your new Yeti. Aside from that, great campsite- space, shade, river access.

Agree with user 56482 - it's a nice campground but the highway traffic noise may be a problem. Clean bathrooms with flush toilets and pay showers.
