Perfect place in the middle of most hiking trailheads. Toilets with running water. We were happy!

We were in site A13. The site is very close to its neighbor because there is no level site for our tent accept right next to their fire ring. You can hear them whispering. Also there is not much shade at that site so bring a shade structure. There are some sites that looked better but overall all the sites are pretty close together. The lake is very nice and the north side has great access to the lake and nice seating areas. Good access to water spigots and trash bins. The bathrooms were very clean but they don't have lighting.

This campground is right in the middle of the park. It's approximately 15 miles in each direction to the most popular sites. The lake is excellent for children to swim in. It is also easy to get your kayaks into the water.

Lovely place to camp, with easy access to many of the park’s trails. Disappointed that there was no evening campfire program.

Campground and facilities great. Campsite are close together and many campfires made it very smokey in the evening and night. Haven't been in a campground that was this smokey. We had to air out the trailer, smelled like campfire when we got home.
