Ponderosa Loop offers open, large sites with plenty of space, while sites at Birch Loop are shaded and more clustered together.

Drinking water and vault toilets are available.

If you want to move your reservation to a first-come, first serve (walk in) site upon arrival, you will have to pay for the new spot as you held a reservable spot that fellow campers were not able to book online.
