It is a beautiful Campgroud. Loved it. The sites are nice and big. We plan to return many times in near future.
The only negative thing I can say is the restrooms was nasty. Unkept that’s the only complaint at all. Other than that it would the most beautiful campground around. Thank you.

We had a great time at Cossatot Reefs. The weather was crisp and beautiful and the trees were in mostly full color. Our daughter and son-in-law met us at the campsite next to ours and we had a great visit. Recommend this park to anyone. This is the fourth time there and it is good each time.

the campsites were awesome and the camping was great . The only flaw I say was the bathroom showers had very little pressure.

We love the park at Cossatot Reef, Gillam Lake. Beautiful well kept park. Went there 2 times this year. Challenging getting a satellite signal, but have found 2 campsites where that is no problem. Will book them from now on. Wish something could be done about the armadillo's digging up the place. Dangerous walking. Fished in the river and the lake but did not have any luck. Wish you would get rid of the speed bumps. Not needed and can do damage with self leveling jacks.
