Setting was spectacular. Campground was nice, toilets and water faucet near campsite. Big bear lockers and plenty of TP.
This would be a 10 star experience except the weather was terrible - not at all the fault of the campground or lake. We ended up having to leave. But I absolutely would go back to stay there again.

The site itself was nice. Many are very cramped. Location is, of course, awesome. The camp host, Travis, could have been more attentive to the restrooms ( toilet paper, spider webs, etc) Overall a good, but not very good experience.

Nice campground in an amazing location. Did have loud campers move in the site next to ours at 3:30A but more bad luck than common.

The camp host was great. The only problem was leveling the trailer. The site had a lot of cross slope. By the time I leveled the trailer the bottom 3rd step of the trailer was about 2 1/2 feet off the ground.
