Shooting from the swing would be an even more interesting challenge. Lol.

Our nearest neighbor is at the next deck, which can barely be seen at the far right of the photo. Very quiet and private...just the sound of the mountain breeze coming through the trees.

Slightly, but worth it once or twice a year for us.

Great campground even without the premium sites. We've been coming 10 or 12 years, well before these "view sites" were built. It's always been special. Reserve very early. We did it a year ago for this site.

Haven't seen the videos, but will take a look. Thanks.

Looks awesome! I'm so excited, we'll be there in 3 weeks! We are in one of those sites with a view too. Looks like we made a great choice staying there!

Hmmm. I looked it up $75. Looks like it's a "to go" place to me. Enjoy
