There are not a lot of services including water service, but there are vault toilets (be warned, the bathrooms don't really lock and there's only one toilet for each gender). The nine sites each have a single parking spot, a fire pit, picnic table, a giant stump for splitting wood if need be, and a very well-groomed flat tent area. The tent area is covered in packed crushed stone, so you will need a hammer to get your stakes in. \n\nWe arrived at 1 pm on a Saturday in late September and there were 3-4 sites still open, but it looked like some people packed up on the later side and there were spots later. Still, the campground filled completely."

      "reviewBody": "There are ten tent sites in this campground, and they are all free! It is first come, first serve so if you are planning on coming in the summer, it might be wise to get there earlier before a weekend to make sure you snag a spot. There are also some sites across the road towards Tibbet Knob for overflow campers. There is currently no running water, so make sure that you bring your own! Vault toilets are available, and they are kept pretty clean. The campsite is directly between two hikes that are pretty popular with dayhikers, and that offer some gorgeous views. Highly recommend!!

We actually preferred the second night more than the first! Even though there were lots of hikers during the day, in the evening it quieted down and was lovely. I recommend you start your hikes to early, right after breakfast before the day hikers start, and that you visit Wardensville and the Lost River Trading Post!"
