Great location for the fisherman. Three trout lakes to choose from. Campground is at 9000’ so be prepared for cold nights.

Great experience in campground. clean and well attended to. However, since lakes were not being stocked - fishing was worst in the last 30 years we have been coming to Trumbull.

Great location. Clean facilities. Some inconsiderate campers starting their generators at four in the morning.
Not much social distancing in some groups.
Looking forward to my trip there next year.

New host was nice but did not inforce loud music or generator usage, also drove around in golf cart to fast causing excess dust. Otherwise a very pleasant time.

Last year, and this year, I noticed that there is little accuracy in updates in campsite availability, or even the names posted on reserved sites. Our fly fishing club had 20 members on its trip, and several stayed in sites they had reserved but were marked with names of other people. This is evidence that Recreation.gov is not accurately updating the campground host with reservation information.
Some of our group had asked to move sites and the host graciously accommodated us as best he could, but he reminded us that he could not guarantee a site’s availability since communication from the local office was so poor. If I have not experienced first hand the same problem last year, I might have thought he was making up a story.
C’mon, Recreation.gov! Get some professionalism back in the game!
