What staying at 09 feels like

Stays at 09 are straightforward and quietly domestic: back-in, nonelectric sites that center on the evening campfire and the practical conveniences of shared shower and laundry facilities. The loop’s modest recreational features — a playground and a basketball hoop — and pit toilets at either end keep the place family-oriented and low-maintenance, while coin-operated services and a pay-per-use model keep overhead simple.

Who it's for

Who gets the most from a stay at 09 — and who should look elsewhere.

RVers needing hookupsNot ideal: sites are nonelectric and configured as back-in spots; large rigs or travelers who require electrical hookups should plan alternatives.

Families with young childrenA good match: the playground near the entrance and a centrally located basketball hoop keep kids occupied close to camp; shared showers and laundry support family stays.
4
Budget or short-term campersWell suited: pay-as-you-go showers and coin-operated laundry allow flexible, lower-cost stays; rate structure supports anything from two to seven nights.
