the campsite was empty when we arrived with only 1 other RV, so not sure if it was just unpopular or we went at a bad time. It was extremely windy we couldn't even cook our food. I also got sick from the cold.

Hi Helen,
Thank you for your review, camping in the Eastern Sierra's in February is not very popular time of the year because of weather. This will be our first year as of April 2nd 2024. we strive hard to have a clean and beautiful environment. The weather is very difficult to predict in our area and late winter and early spring is usually very windy. Im sorry that you got sick, it is extremely important that you look at weather trends in your travels and that you equip and plan your trips with the proper supplies and gear. The weather was horrible during the time period that you stayed however that was the same weather pattern for all of the Eastern Sierra's.
We hope your next visit will be one of good memories and great times.
Thank you,
Nacho
