Nice little campsite with a trailhead to a good hike. Some sites are shadier than others, mine only had partial shade. My site was a teeny bit too close to the bathrooms but traded off hearing toilets flush for not having to walk too far at night. Generally pretty quiet except for some people blasting music. Very close to town/neighborhoods and easy to get around. Would return.

Sean, the camp host, was polite and helpful. The restrooms were cleaned and stocked frequently. Everyone more or less was quiet by 10:30pm on Saturday night.

Our family had a great time here! So close to the (inaccessible) lake, very pretty, great views. Still allowing campfires while we were there, despite CA burning. Grab a spot along the outside perimeter for some privacy and views. We stayed in a trailer so I can't comment on the facilities. Site 27 was great--big, private enough, still close to everyone and everything. Would definitely go back!

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
