Low Key Trad Crag

I'm looking for a low key crag that has a high concentration of easy to moderate gear lines (5.7-5.9). I'm taking a small group out to acquaint them with gear. As such i do not want to get in the way at more popular crags (pebble beach, funk rock etc...), hence the request for suggestions on an out of the way crag. I've sifted through the guide and have a few ideas (dip wall is looking promising), but would like local opinions.
Cheers

Dip wall would be a good option. the routes are easy and reasonably short.

How small of a group and are you making money guiding. You need to look at the possibility that you may need a permit and some crags are off limits to guiding. I don't know the particular crags that have these limitations.

Dip Wall. Been a lot of rain and creeks/rivers are high. Dip trail follows water at it's start, but then heads uphill.
WOD follows the river the whole way.

Good point... that WOD/Eagle Pt riverside trail was almost gone in a couple spots 2 months ago, it must be in terrible shape by now.
