This was a great place to hike. Two different trails, probably 2 miles total. Beautiful views at the end of the trails. Gift shops and restrooms close by the beginning of the trails.Full review by 746pamelah

The views along the way are quite beautiful, but the mountain road to the park is a two lane (one lane each way), winding and very steep at times. I’ve heard those with RVs do not recommend bringing large RVs on that road and definitely nothing over 30 feet. Finding a place to turn around if you changed your mind wouldn’t be easy. I also think parking such a large vehicle may be a nightmare too. Definitely pack a lot of patience. Whatever you decide .. safe travels :)
