Awesome campground! Some of the sites are tricky with a trailer due to the width of the road and spurs, but definitely recommend for tents, vans/RVs, and smaller trailers. Campground was well kept and has incredible views.

Great camp host, clean spots, walking along the cute path to Forks Restaurant was a highlight. We had a beautiful view of the lake at campsite #25.

Carmen, the camp host, was such wonderful and kind! The lavendar-scented hand soaps in each restrooms, I could immediately notice that this campground has been being taken such a good care by its host. The campground felt as if it was just newly opened.
I really wanted to compliment Carmen, the host. Her smile for her guests was such warm and welcoming. I had conversations with her. I really appreciate her passion to love what she does. Her passion was motivating to me. I will visit again.
Thank you, Carmen!

The campground has a wonderful of view of lake. The restroom is very clean but there aren’t any showers (you have to use the public showers which are located in another campground cost 4$ - they are clean).

It is so beautiful at the forks and the staff, especially Carmen were very easy to work with, but she also made sure that everything was taken care of. We felt very safe and the bathrooms were amazingly clean… Very nice!
We have several more trips planned this season and we are so excited to see Carmen when we get there!
