Unpleasant experience. Parking is inconvenient. Nearest bathrooms were closed and used for storage shed. Our campsite was not the same shown in our camp reservation. There was no grill and only the camp fire pit. Driving into the campground is a good 10miles, all dirt road. Recommend a truck. No nearby stores or convenience stores. Will not revisit this camp ground.

We camp at Whitehorse 1-2 times ever spring. It is a peaceful, beautiful spot. I highly recommend the ‘C’ loop for tents only. We can launch our kayaks and keep them on the beach there. The camp hosts are incredibly kind and do a great job keeping the campground clean. The Black Bear Shack is so convenient if you have forgotten something or run low on ice. We will continue camping here for as long as we are able!

Aside from the bumpy road getting in, everything was amazing! Location, ability to walk to the lake to fish, the pavilion, the fire pit, the staff. We got lucky with good weather too.

We stayed at White Horse lake for a week at the beginning of June. It is basically in our backyard as we live in Williams. We have never taken the RV to camp out there before, but we definitely will be doing it again! The campsite was great as well as the views. The camp hosts were awesome, very friendly and kept the restrooms
extremely clean.
My 9-year-old grandson caught more fish during our week there then he has anywhere else we've stayed.
As a few people have stated, the dirt road to get there is kind of rough. Once you are there though it is totally well worth it!

Beautiful spot with the lake. Spent two nights. The area is well maintained, the hosts are friendly and the bathrooms were clean and not terrible smelling in spite of the heat.

The campground was quiet and clean and all the campers seem to respect everyones space. Something I find very important. The restrooms were some of the cleanest I've seen.

2nd time staying here. This time "waterfront." Campground is super clean. The drive in is a long dirt/often washboard road - don't complain about it - you know before even coming here. ;-) One of CG host couples were super cordial and helpful (didn't meet the other set but I'm sure they are too) and also advised us of the fire ban not long after arriving (which was set to expire at 8 a.m the next morning). Bathrooms, while they are "pit toilets" were as clean as one would expect. Drinking water was excellent. Verizon cell coverage was zero at this site however 200 yards away I could send a dozen photos via text message without issues. We'll definitely be going back again.

First time camping here and very happy we chose this place. We stayed for 3 nights during the week. It was the perfect peace and quiet place that I needed being from Vegas. There were only a handful of campers in loop A for the first couple days. The view of the lake from our site was amazing. The camp was clean and sites were spaced out well enough in some areas. The site I got was too close to the next site though but got lucky it was unoccupied during our time there. Lucky for us, the weather was in the high 70s early June and there was breeze. The nights got to the mid 50s. There are all sorts of bugs at night. The bathroom was cleaned daily. It's a pit toilet so don't forget to close the lid after using. And yes, there was toilet paper! There is a spigot for drinking water only. The Black Bear Shack on site was like a one-stop shop; they not only sell food, refreshments, rent canoes/kayak, they also sell basic necessities for camping. They are open 9am - 5pm except Wednesdays. We got to meet the camp hosts and they were nice and friendly. The walk around the lake was a good hike for sure. We definitely would be coming back again and try some other activities.
