The campground is very clean and well maintained. We had a double site this time (Loop B- site 043), and it was huge. The lake is well stocked, and great for fishing and hiking around. We camp here every memorial day weekend and love the proximity to Williams.

We stayed two days. The bathroom were very clean, as was the campsite.The attendant, Danyeal, was very helpful, as we had a mixup with our online registration. We had a great fishing experience; they had stocked the lake the morning we arrived. We plan on spending a lot more time at Dogtown this summer. Recreation.gov made it easy to pick and reserve our campsite.
