Great location and very clean. Even the fire ring had been raked prior to our arrival.

There are no showers and only three of the four toilets are working. Bathrooms could be much cleaner but always stocked with TP.

Great camping at a beautiful lake. Enjoyed the water activities and the local hikes - twin lakes was awesome. Had spot 8 which is very nice with easy access to bear cove. Only complaint is the spot was neglected by the ground crew, a huge bunch of weeds right by asphalt where you would walk from the trailer to the table. I had to borrow a shovel from the camp host to cut out the weeds. Also lots of grass "bushes" throughout the area where you would setup chairs. Definitely needs to be cleaned up. On the positive side the camp hosts are wonderful, friendly, and helpful. Restrooms were kept clean and well stocked.

Very clean. No litter. Clean table. Enough room to back my 18' boat and pickup in.
Real bathrooms with flush toilets, but bring your own soap.
Campground was full, (August 3rd), of people with kids and dogs, but at 10pm on it was nearly silent the whole night. I was a little confused to where we were supposed to check in, as the launch ramp kiosk has the camping registration right on the day use payment envelopes. I guess we were supposed to register farther left into the parking lot where someone was sitting under an umbrella, but there were no signs so I just filled out the one by the launch ramp.

Site 22 at Deer Creek is close to the Lakeshore lodge and store and the boat ramp. Great for enjoying Huntington lake.

Great campsite, easy access to water and bathrooms and the lake. Relatively quiet as well for a peaceful getaway.

(+) Site was level, bathrooms were always clean, water locations were spread conveniently throughout the area, short 5 minute walk to the lake.
(-) Adjacent campsite had a 4-month old baby that cried often during the night - not terribly considerate of other campers.

Beautiful lake and nicely treed campsites. Was there for a sailing regatta. On the negative side, very basic bathrooms and no showers in the entire campground.
