Don't let the map confuse you: spot 6 is NOT on the lake side. It actually has a trail across from it down to the lagoon, but it sits to the left of the road. It's also super narrow and is probably the trickiest spot in the campground to back into if you have a longer trailer due to the site angle and how narrow the road is in this spot. Regardless, this campground is still our favorite.

My reservation which I had made many months before and have been looking forward to was giving away by the time I got there. $100 gone. Website failed numerous times on tablet and computer to update my reservation. Alaskans can't just go camping anymore with this system. People are scalping these reservations on Facebook. This is a fraud and I wish there was a better way to camp at some of the favorite spots my family's been going to for over 25 years. I may give up after this. Some small consolation the campground hosts were very very kind.

Loved campground. All campsites are great. Choose creek side or lake side. If want to have access to the lake, camp on west side.

Site 036 is a pull through across the road from the lake with crushed asphalt paving and easy to level our small camping trailer. Site has a large fire ring and picnic table with a water pump next door. It's a large site with trees but open enough for the sun and solar panel to keep the batteries charged. and it was not "buggy". Nearby toilets were clean and stocked. Cell phone coverage AT&T was OK. There is a boat launch close to the site but you can launch rafts, canoes, and kiyaks (sic) anywhere along the lake shoreline/beach which is quite wide.

I was impressed with how well groomed all the sites in the campground were during my overnight stay. Very level ground and clean. Great stay.
