Top Shelf camping
We had a great time at the Top Shelf site. We took our truck camper and was able to fit with no issue. Beautiful views however The Bar is the site to be at for sure. We liked that their was a portable toilet available but would have been more comfortable with it if it was more centralized instead we felt like we were walking into the other campsites area to use the bathroom. We will be returning for sure!

We love this spot. We had a great camping weekend with multiple families. The shelter and counter space are such a luxury for cooking and keeping everything dry. Stunning views!

We’d recommend “the bar” site!
We stayed at “the bar” in February and absolutely loved it so we decided to book it again to see the fall colors. We were a little bummed out when we learned the campsite had been split into two separate sites (“the bar” and “the shelf”) as we loved the privacy and letting our dogs be off leash. When I reached out to the land owners about this they recommended renting both sites and gave us a code to lower the price of “the shelf” booking. We ended up booking both sites so we could still keep the campsite private. It was definitely more money than we’d wanted to spend but we still had a nice time and enjoyed the views from “the bar’s” campsite.
We were happy to see that the doors and some of the blockades that were up when we visited in February were removed which made it much easier to park our camper, we could just pull through rather than having to back in.
NOTE: On your last 10-15 minutes of your drive getting to the campsite’s driveway, please watch out for dogs when you are driving through the winding residential areas! We had several dogs run at our vehicle and we were terrified we might hit them so just drive super slow through those areas and keep an eye out!
All in all “the bar” is a gorgeous campsite and we had lots of fun here. “The shelf” is definitely a lot more trees that block the views so just keep that in mind when booking the shelf rather than the bar.

The Bar
We keep going back for a reason.
Our second stay at The Bar and ready to book a 3rd. The view remains epic and it's just a cool lo action. We tent camped our first trip. That trip inspired us to buy an off road capable teardrop. Our stay there in the teardrop was perfect.

Top Shelf
Beautiful with all the trees turning their fall colors! View was a bit obstructed by leaves compared to the bar as mentioned in other reviews- but it had its own kind of beauty. Plenty of space for a big tent, probably really only space for two or three cars.
ALSO- read directions carefully. Google maps your way to mountain *** park. We went off-roading following directions lol. I would have been nervous driving my Honda fit up the mountain roads to the camp site area for anyone with a 2 wheel drive.

Lots of space and beautiful views
DO NOT USE GPS LINK: WRONG LOCATION
Loved the privacy of this site from being at the end of the road. The shelter was worth it since we had rain most of the afternoon. The panoramic view also catches the sunrise.
Lots of space for group booking. No cellphone reception issues. I will definitely book again.
