Our group's second time in this campground & glad to see 5 bear boxes (none before). Vaulted toilet was kept clean. Water spigot was flimsy tho' & leaked water the next day. Hiked the trail to Jenks Lake & it was awesome. We love this campground & plan to come back next year.

This was my 6th trip at this campground with my girl scout troop. Over the last 10 years quite a few girls had their first camping trip. They planned and cooked their own meals, they hiked, and they learned all kinds of outdoor skills. This last trip we noticed bear boxes were installed too. We learned geocaching and found a couple of caches nearby. Always a great time with plenty of space and the cleanest pit toilets I have ever seen.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
Wildlife & food storage
- Be cautious of bears in the area and follow food storage rules.
Fees & deposits
