Lakes Basin

Great campground. We stayed in site #2 July 20-26. Site was reasonably level - only 1 "Lego" needed for 27 foot motorhome. Warm during the day, cool at night. Lots of nearby hikes. Our dog loved it too!

This is a beautiful campsite in a spectacular area with great hiking. Lots of wildflowers this trip in early July. The reason I did not give it a better rating is that there is no potable water and we were not advised of that. Evidently there has been no water at the site since last fall. This should have been made clear to anyone booking a site. Had to go into Graeagle to buy water and get our container filled up. Also to buy firewood as there was no camp host or firewood to buy at campsite. Some of the campsites were in bad shape with broken tables. I think from a severe winter and lack of good management at the campsite this year. Hopefully this will get sorted out as it has always been very well run before.

Lakes Basin is a beautiful campground with many amazing recreational opportunities. Wonderful area and we enjoyed our hikes and swims!

Well to start off, there was no water at all. They have not turn the water on yet and for July 5. It should’ve been on and running by then I would think and the pit toilets hadn’t been cleaned out since the year before they were about a foot below the seat, which was pretty darn gross. So I think I should have my money back to tell you the truth except for my family being there it was a pretty bad experience especially for them that were camping in tents with no water. Thank you.

Camp host was not on site. There was no water. Garbage was a complete bear bait. The dumpster was mounded and spilling over on to the ground.

No camp host to resolve issues on site. No firewood for sale. No running water. Garbage dumpster was overflowing. People camping without paying / taking other people's reserved sites. Pretty terrible management this year.

We loved our site, so close to the hikes to various lakes and flowers!

When I arrived someone was in our site; they were planning on staying another night. I told them that I didn't want to just take another site as we had a lot of stuff to set up. They eventually left. We waited for an 1 and 1/2 hrs for them to leave. NO HOST. Some TP stacked in corner but gone every day. I had brought my own. Every day was without TP; Wed- Sun. Still wasn't there when we left at noon. I wanted to add another night and hoped that I didn't have to move my tent again as there weren't any updates on sites.

21 years of going to LB and this was by far the worst. Site reservations were not updated, so campers in sites that were suppose to be empty but were actually reserved. Total confusion. NO CAMP HOST. NO FIREWOOD. FIRE PIT IN OUR CAMPSITE (21) WAS DISASSEMBLED / UNUSABLE. NO TOILET PAPER X 2 DAYS. We had reservation for five days. We left after two. We haven't decided if we are going back. What a shame to end this long tradition on such a sour note.
