The campground was spacious, clean, quiet, and the bathrooms were so clean!
Wish there were showers, though.

The campsite was freshly cleaned/raked before we arrived. The Camphost stopped by to ask ho we were and collect the fee for the additional vehicle we had. He was very friendly and waived every time he drove by.

Basic campground close to town and activities, the camp host was super nice and warned of recent bears intruding camp (I read this on the website ahead of time so prepared accordingly), they do have bear boxes, which is great. Bathroom is very basic, flush toilets but small and a bit run down. You have to drive through ski summit's parking lot to get to the campground, which was a bit confusing, but it's tucked away behind the neighborhood there. Lots of lovely birds and adorable squirrels. Overall I'd stay there again!

We have stayed in Pine Knot before. It's a quiet peaceful place with friendly people. The facilities are convenient and well maintained. Definitely a "must stay at" on any campers list.
