I stayed in campsite 23 which absolutely has a stunning view. I loved my stay here. I think this is the third or fourth time I have stayed here. The views can’t be beat. The campground is clean and I love the short walk to Lynx Lake. I am a fan forever.

Situated in a beautiful ponderosa pine forest, quiet, peaceful, close enough to town to be convenient, but far enough away for campground to feel remote. Clean and well maintained. I would camp here again.

This was a nice quiet campground. I was blessed to have a mostly level site - most sites are, well, on a hilltop. You park (usually along the road) and hike down to your campsite. When I was younger I would have found this charming but at 72 years old I find I prefer more level sites.
I did like the campground. As I said it was a quiet campground. Even though the sites are fairly close to each other I was very pleased with how thoughtful my fellow campers were.

It was the perfect campsite - very peaceful and serene. We loved the steps down to the site since it isolated us from the other sites as if we were right in the center of the forest.
