Beautiful sites. Feels secluded. Right off the highway. However the bathrooms ran out of toilet paper. I even saw a maintenance guy come by in the morning, but nothing got refilled. Considering the prices of the campsites, which seem to keep rising, I would think they could do better. Not a dealbreaker. Will definitely be back.

Campsite was wonderful. Clean and not too busy. Some noise from either frogs or crickets during the night but we managed to sleep well anyway.
Alan who manages the site is great and was very friendly and helpful. He also went through some extra effort to make sure restrooms and camp sites were clean and nice to use. Much appreciated!

The park is just 10 minutes from town and across from Safeway grocery store is a discount grocery that was very affordable, the campground itself is on a reservoir and is crystal clear and odor free, no bugs no mosquitoes heaven on earth! Be prepared to haul in water and you will have a great time with a great host. We took a dip in the reservoir daily to keep clean and the fish was jumping, eagles swoop down and catch fish, Coyotes howl at night and made for a lovely time, we stayed 2 weeks could have easily stayed longer with so much natural beauty in the area it is a home run, tent site 13 is the best.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Contact customer service at the provided phone number or email for assistance.

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.
