Very beautiful setting, but the campsites are crowded together. It feels more like a KOA campground than a National Park. It's very popular with the locals, who bring their children. Quite noisy, and you can basically spit on the next campsite. Not what I had in mind. Also, there are no Park Rangers or camp hosts to help with any issue you may have. You are on your own, with no cell service for an internet connection at this location. You have to drive to the south visitor's center for that. I will stay elsewhere next time.

Site B22: Large space, pretty far from neighboring sites. Nice space overall with several places for tents. Slight slope to driveway so may not be ideal for campervan,etc. Fire pit is a bit close to 1 of the neighboring sites so that might be a factor for some. Overall really nice site at a nice campground and a short 1/4 mile walk to manzanita lake. Just FYI the showers were under construction due to a tree that fell onto the building last winter.

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.
