Oak Grove was great! The camp host was personable and welcoming, but not overbearing. There was lots of wildlife that would visit the campground, and the campground is near several trails through the National Forest.

I loved the grassy meadows. 3 vault toilets mean you don't have to walk very far. Several sites require a little walking and lugging gear. If you want extra privacy you should be able to easily find a spot you like. There are wild horses in the area and they like to hang out in the campground.
