Pineknot

I was there for 4 days/3 nights. The actual site I was at was just as pictured. Had plenty of scattered shade throughout the day and a clear view of the sky at night. Two things though:
The woman’s bathroom was completely closed during my entire stay. No problem, I’ll just use the men’s instead but the sink wasn’t working in there. It was ok having to use the men’s during the day, but at night and early in the morning it was very uncomfortable.
The second thing was tar splatters on the stairs to the restroom. I initially didn’t see it because it was at night. The next morning my dog was constantly licking his paw and is when I found tar on paw. I noticed after a bathroom trip in the morning where that tar had come from. I had to carefully cut his fur between the pads of his toes and use oil to try and clean it off of his padding. It took 4 days before it completely wore off.

Excellent place to stay, close to town and close to hiking and lake activities. Note that the bear lockers are much smaller than the normal forest service lockers, so plan accordingly.

I stayed here to relax and unwind and my neighbors and their children in the site next to me put their tents on my site and were throwing rocks at my tent, screaming, and playing music until 1 a.m. I had to stay at a motel just to get some sleep and feel safe. I will never return to this campsite again. Although Camp Host was very nice

Great spot if you are biking snow summit. Clean bathrooms. The middle spots back up next to each other and might feel a little crowded but the edge sites are great.

Great site, very big!

This is a great campsite. Campsite is super clean and the hosts work hard to keep it that way. Loved our stay. Some campsites are close to each other but there are a lot of trees for shade, and privacy.

As usual my visit was great. No terrible noise, just the chatter of families having a good time.

The campground is very clean. The hosts are very friendly and helpful.
Gina and Angie are awesome.

Overall, I usually always have a great time at Pineknot Campsite. This trip unfortunately site two across from us had a service that dropped off a trailer that had a very old style generator, which was extremely loud and offputting. To add to the noise, pollution, the site that is directly in front of the camp host, kinda in the hole across from the bathrooms, blasted their music the entire evening even after the federal Ranger drove through. They continued the loud music right up to 9:59 PM. I understand this is at no fault of the camp hosts, but yet it created a challenging environment, not only for us but many campers that were close to this site and we were affected by the noise pollution.

Otherwise, as usual, the camp host staff does a great job at cleaning up sites, being a resource, the bathrooms are always clean, and they are always friendly.

I did see an update of one of the dumpsters, closest to Campos, has been replaced as it previously did not have a lid to keep wildlife out. There are multiple dumpsters at this campsite that do not have the ability to close a lid to keep wildlife out of the trash.

Thank you you as always for providing a survey and the ability to give feedback.

Good spot, well-maintained. Close to hiking and views.
