Great location. You have the feel of being up in the woods and mountains, yet if you need anything from town, it is just a two minute trip away. The bathrooms are kept clean, being cleaned several times a day. The sites are good size. Already making plans for next year!

Great location for bike and hike. Not far from the lake. The place would be much better if it had showers.

Great location. Bathrooms are small but at least they are actual bathrooms and not just pit toilets. We had site 47 which is more secluded than most sites; no neighbors on either side. Only one small place for tent. Lots of shade. Easy access to Snow Summit trails.
