I don’t want to be petty with the 3 stars, because the lake is beautiful and the campsites are well kept, but the price was too high for the proximity to the next camp. A normal conversation around the campfire could be heard from the camp next door, and I paid $50 for the large site. The $25 sites are even smaller and closer together. That’s my only complaint.

Feb 20201 We absolutely enjoyed our stay on Teddy Bear loop. We had a view of lake and it was gorgeous. Covid still has things shut down (showers) but access to bathrooms was available. Being able to dump the tank was nice too. Freshwater fill-ups available around the camp area.

Gorgeous spot!!! Literally a 2 min walk to the shore. Amazing hike to top of the peaks across 188. Stunning views. Hiked the cemetery trail and around the mountains. Many cows to admire. Stopped at new restaurant for a drink outside and was grateful they sell bagged ice to go from the store! The teddy bear loop was very clean, well kept, bathrooms clean as well. Would definitely recommend and return!

Try to get a back in space rather than roadside if you have slide outs. Ours did NOT hang into the roadway, but I would have felt more comfortable if we didn't have that at all. Campground was clean and nice, people observed the quiet time from 10p - 6a nicely, no complaints at all.
