Beautiful place as always. My biggest takeaway is how wonderfully the campground is kept. You won’t find cleaner better smelling bathrooms anywhere. Our host Kimo was very efficient in quieting loud music and was always available and willing to meet everyone’s needs. He is the best!

My stay at Trumbull Lake campground was very nice. We had site 30 and it was perfect for us who were tent camping. The campground is very quite and good for dogs. Bathrooms are vaulted pit toilets but very clean. You can take showers at Virginia Lakes resort for fee. The Virginia Lakes General store is good for basic needs and has great apple pie at the cafe. I would go again.
