We loved our time at the Lost Creek Group Campground. It was clean and we had tons of space for the kids to run around and explore.

I visited with a high school group the week before Labor Day. The restrooms were clean and water and trash were close to our site. Only one other group was staying here at the time, and we rarely saw them. The spots were large enough for our group of twenty. The only down side was the decent amount of yellow jackets or meat bees that surrounded us when we cooked, but that is the outdoors. Overall, Lost Creek Group was exactly what we needed, and we had a very good time hiking and swimming throughout the park.
