My son calls it the park in the mountains

We enjoyed our stay at Cunningham Falls Manor Area Campground BUT the bathroom was one of the worst we’ve seen in area state parks. There was a rain storm the first night we were there, so naturally there was mud tracked into the stalls, but it took a call to the ranger station to get the floors moderately cleaned. The toilets and showers were never cleaned - one shower bench had mud on it; the other was covered in bugs and was actually a utility ladder/bench. Toilet paper was not resupplied. As another reviewer said, you might want to take your own. I mean, look - we know we’re camping. We know there are bugs and spiders, but other state parks have managed to keep the bathrooms fairly clean. On a positive note, the park is quiet, staff cleaning the sites between guests are friendly, and self check-in is a breeze. Firewood supply is also plentiful. If we go back, we’ll probably stay in the Houck area, which has a dump station and better reviews (cleaner bathrooms).

Bathrooms don't seem to be cleaned much anymore. Been out of toilet paper since we got here. Make sure to bring your own. Camp sites are nice. Most sites have decent space between them for privacy.
