    Thanks Mark for sharing this place, it was a fav of mine, stayed 2 nights. the only cons to the place was the wind but it usually came in the afternoon, the sights & nature walk are outstanding! and if you use your national parks pass, its half price also, which mean full electric site for $9 and a tent camp site for $3.50, with all amenities like hot showers, flush toilets etc, cant beat it! a hidden treasure

    The lava flow is neat to see. Prices are not bad with the amenities they offer.

      @@DispersedCamperMan Do you actually get half off though? I've looked at some federal camping areas where the camping fee would be like $25, but that price was really a small base camping fee with several surcharges. So your half off would only get you half off $6 or $8, not half off $25.
