Sweet. The fire place was part of the site?

Yep Cayaon Campground for the win. Though the another campgrounds have them to. We stayed in Madison Campground couple years ago: Here a pic of that campground.

And here the fire pit:

That is really cool that you have these, basically unheard of in Europe, maybe some places in Scandinavia.

Really?? In Scandinavia such well equipped camp sites are all over the place.

Yeah, that ain't a thing. If you're lucky there may be one or a few* communal fire places, but it's kinda rare. I have been the only on two, three official camp sites in Norway because I wild camped the rest, but I don't remember seeing a fire place there either, although they may have had a communal one too. Refuges in the mountains often have an indoor fire place though.

*only really remember a single one that had a few, the one at Saignelégier, Switzerland.
