What a cool campground. We never saw any kind of "roundhouse" but there was a bunch of oddities there. Like the pack of coyotes howling and the hooting owls that sounded like a bunch of monkeys!
We had site #19 it was spacious, with no one around us, we were just East of some big brick building (maybe THAT was the roundhouse idk).
Bathrooms were pretty clean. When I was in the shower and turned on the nice warm water I looked up to the shower head and I was greeted by a little frog just sitting there looking at me. Coyotes, owls and frogs, oh my!

Checking in was a little confusing. There's a somewhat long gray old looking house type building. On the far end, I guess the East end, there's a storm door to a little tiny room. Go in there. There's a map of campsites. You have to go pick a campsite and then go back and fill out your registration form add your cash, put in a provided envelope and slide it thru the mail drop inside there.

About a mile or so out of the camping area, riding to the east, turn left at the street, go up the hill and there is small Casey's.

On to Easley and the anticipated Cooper's Landing!
