Campground was filled with loud partiers and people racing STV’s and motorcycles around the campground, we left at 10:30 PM. Not recommended for families.

Gunshots coming way too close to our family! Please post a sign at the entrance stating park rules about firing a gun at Jim Creek. I truly believe most folks don’t know they are breaking the law.
