It is a nice site, and far enough from major roads that you don't even have
to hear cars going by.  However, therein lies one of its problems.  Has
anyone been in touch with the Sheriff's dept and whoever provides ambulance
services down there to make sure that they've learned where the place is?
Even for those of us who have been a few times, and had to swim out during
the flood, that road can be hard to spot.  I wouldn't want my life to depend
on an ambulance driver trying to find it based on phoned-in directions,
without benefit of it being marked on a map somewhere.

I can just see that one.  15-story tents and 3-tier stadium seating around
the listfield.  Not to mention the need for a parking shuttle from the
KMart.

It's more of a small-to-medium event site, unless they've made a lot of
changes since I last camped there.  While there are a few fairly remote
sites, there's really not enough straight-line distance between most of the
campsites to get very many loud encampments away from an equal number of
quiet encampments unless you make the loud ones sit in each others' laps.
