The camp site was so very slanted that there was no flat surface to set our tents or kitchen area. Only flat spot on entire site was under the picnic bench. The roads inside the campground were horrible. They were so degraded and the tree roots had destroyed so much of it that riding our bikes popped 3 of our tires on our 4 bikes.

I enjoyed my stay at Wishon. I went for walks by the lake and enjoyed the late spring wildflowers.

The view of the lake from the site was beautiful but the site is extremely sloped. Picnic table was propped up one side with rocks to compensate for the slope. And the fire pit is also on this slope which is dangerous because you have to walk down the slope from your car. Other than accidentally twisting your ankle &/or catching fire, the view is beautiful.
