The start of the campground loop road.

This circle of campsites along the loop road seems to be popular with friends camping together.

Pull-through site #9.

The tent-camping area (with 3 sites) is around the back of the kitchen shelter.
In front is a bat house - one bat can eat up to 1,200 mosquitos in an hour!

Walk-in tenting sites #12 and 13.

To the left of of the kitchen shelter area is the boat launch.

The sign to the right says "4 wheel drive only" because the boat launch ramp is so steep.
