Great, secluded campground! This is a great location if you’re trying to have a laid back trip. Quick access to lake across a road with little to no traffic where you can kayak/fish but there’s not much of a beach to hangout at. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked. Our location unfortunately would get whiffs of pit toilet aroma every once in a while though. This site is a little uneven but we found enough flat ground for our 4 person tent, anything bigger might be tough. Definitely stock up on everything you might need in Auburn or Forresthill before heading any further!

Campsite was very clean, private and quiet. The McGuire trail is a great hike and close by. The lake is a short walk from the campsite. The drive to the campground is tricky due to road closures but is a temporary situation. Will be back!

Lovely campground, proximity to reservoirs is great, found a couple of nice hikes close by and some nice quiet spots to enjoy the water. Our campground was in full sun for the hottest parts of the day so we would pick a different site next time (35, 36, 16 looked great, 38, 39, 6 we’re ok, 17 would be our backup). Facilities were clean and well placed.

Very beautiful lake and not crowded which is rare for the summary time. The campsite had everything you'd need. Only call out is that you have to take a dirt road to get here because of some detour which I was unprepared for.
