The maintenance crews were out every day and did a commendable job of keeping a busy campground well cared for. I know, unfortunately, that long term maintenance issues have been underfunded for years. That makes me all the more appreciative of the work your people do to provide a good experience.

Manzanita Lake is awesome and challenging to fish. Beautiful setting indeed. The campground is well maintained and organized but some of the sites are just ill conceived and too close together or right on the road. We had some problems with overhead branches in our fifth-wheel and our "pull-through" site was really a pull in but back out.

Absolutely wonderful campgrounds, within 5 minute walk of the lake. Sites were large, not super close to each other and had plenty of shade! Fire rings, bear boxes and picnic tables came with all sires, also very convenient to have camp store about 5 minutes walk away with food.

Very nice. Clean. Quiet. Large spaces. Great store with gas! We will spend more time in future and use lake.

Policies & Rules
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.
