The space was impeccable, well cared for, table and bear boxes clean, the camp spot was raked! Bathroom was spotless and had flush toilets. The campground host was super nice and must have been the one taking care of these things. Our spot was far enough from the road to not hear traffic. All in all, a fantastic experience.

Check in is a problem. Only one person, and there are a few people wanting to check in. Personnel could be a little friendlier and wear a smile. Camp site was clean. Camp host were very friendly and helpful.

We stayed here for a week in August of 2019. It was an excellent, well kept campground. The bathrooms were cleaned twice a day and the camp hosts were pleasant and helpfull. The campground is close to multiple day hikes. Being right next to the lake was wonderful! We will be coming back to this campground in the future.

Stop raking the campsites you're creating too much dust on the ground.

July 4, 2019 our site was #023 the site was clean and pretty much leveled. I had a perfect view to the lake where my crew was swimming. The bathrooms are clean and well stocked. There are no showers but we took a portable and just hung it on the tree. There was enough fallen trees on the ground that we did not need to take firewood. There is a store pretty close by but I must warn you they are pretty pricey.
