Manzanita Lake was a great place to stay! Beautiful trees and the lake was a short walk away. Bathrooms were clean and easily accessible. The visitors center and museum are a short drive and provide great resources on the area along with a detailed overview of the history of the land. It was very crowded when we went and witnessed people just not respecting space and leaving trash around. Hiking trails were very busy I suggest starting early in the morning to get a good parking spot. Dogs are not allowed on the trails due to wild life but trash cans are provided. Unfortunately people were disregarding the signage as dogs were on every trail. People did not discarding their pets' waste bags as many were left along the trails. I'd highly recommend this camp site and the national park itself as its beautiful and I'd definitely come back. I suggest the Leave No Trace rule be practiced and have courtesy for each other if you plan on visiting.

Plenty of room, camp spaces were spaced out well. Saw deer in the campground. Were able to set up 3 hammocks near the site. No cell service. Nearby camp store had WiFi and showers were open 24/7.

- 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.

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.
