The campground is very well kept and clean. The host does an excellent job in keeping track of who comes in and out of that place. Kimo is on top of everything!!

Campground is on a slight slope, so most of the sites are as well - otherwise, perfect spot! Lovely high-elevation campground on Trumbull Lake and easy hike to several other Virginia lakes. Gorgous!

Forest Service did great job cleaning up the campground after winter season. Camp host was great too. He was very courteous and helpful, and kept the facilities clean and operational. It was a great camping experience.

We really enjoyed our campsite at Trumbull Lake. Super close to the Virginia Lakes trailhead. Our site was away from the lake so it was nice and quiet. A fair amount of mosquitoes though, but it goes with the time of the year. Nice campground, clean and lots of spacious sites. We would come again.

Such a beautiful campground!! The camp host is absolutely amazing and made my son’s and I camping trip even more memorable. Will definitely camp there again next time I’m in the area.

Trumbull campground was in full bloom...the meadow by the lake was filled with wonderful colors from the wildflowers. There was a pair of Robins with a nest of three hungry young birds above our campsite...Welcome to the Opening Day for this season at the campground!
Kimo and the staff had the campsites in terrific shape...all the down branches were raked and removed and the bathrooms were really clean. There was just a few patches of snow around but it was melting fast.
Our group had three campsites and we all enjoyed some great hiking and fantastic fishing for lots of Rainbows and Brook Trout in both Trumbull and Big Virginia Lakes. We caught fish up to 5 lb + on our favorite lures...the Hookup Baits.

The Camp Host has been hosting for 5 years, he is really nice. Unlike 99% of campgrounds theses days, he made contact after our arrival. Campground had potable water, which is rarely found these day. Also, though we had a reservation, there were many FCFS open sites. Lots of kids and families were having fun
