We love camping here! Depending on the site you choose there are gorgeous views. Its so relaxing! It's clean and there are many areas to swim at. The bathrooms are clean but don't have hand soap. I recommend this campsite to everyone!

64 is a great stop. Easy to get into with a larger unit. Plenty of shade and also close to the water fill stations. Wish they would actually do some branch cutting for dead trees but...thats why i bring my own handsaw.

We had an epic camping space. Only thing if anything - is that the water treatment thing is right behind the site, so that is quote noisy. Worth it - stunning views.

Our experience at Brady Mountain was excellent except for the last day, Sunday, when the Forestry Department had unannounced conducted a controlled burn all around the lake, completely engulfing the camp site in smoke. The smoke was so thick it caused us to choke and our eyes to burn. Needless to say, we had to cut our stay short and leave Sunday, even though our reservation was for until Monday. Very disappointing in that there was no advance notice given at the site, no signs, at the entrance, no notices to individual campers from the camp host. We would have appreciated a refund for this trip.

The weather and campground was great. Forestry service was doing a control burn that smoked us out the last night. We had to pack up and leave a day early it was so bad. Would have been nice if the ranger would have given campers a heads up.
