We really enjoyed this campsite. The sites were very clean and raked when we arrived, they looked so nice. We were in F loop, and were about a 1/4 mile walk/hike to the lake. There are a few designated trails to get you to the lake. Sites are far enough apart from neighbors, so you don’t feel on top of one another. Bathrooms we clean (no lights so bring a flashlight for after dark) and there were a few fresh water spigots around for those needs. Very wonderful place and very well managed

We recently enjoyed a weekend retreat, and despite its proximity to town (a mere six minutes), the campsites were impeccably maintained. Although all sites were reserved, the atmosphere in the mountains remained remarkably serene.

Site ok to back-in. Both of us have back knees so seven steps down to fire pit, a little hard. Site level so that was good.

Fully paved, easy to access. Spacious campsite. We had a 4-5 people tent, and a canopy with lots of room left to move around. Make sure to reserve your site early tho!

Campers next to us had little dogs that barked all day and evenings for 2 days.
The forest Service started a controlled burn that caused us to leave early due to very heavy smoke.
The camp host was super nice and agreed with the poor choice of starting a controlled burn the week before the campground closed.
We saw many campers evacuating the campground due to the inconsiderate poor planning by the Forest Service.
