Site #7 is good, #1,2,3 and 10 are not good for tent.
On my stay, there are people with loud music after quiet time and I need to came out from my tent to ask them turn off the radio around mid-night.

Love love loved our trip! Lake is low- took advantage of that and filled a trash bag every day with old broken glass bottles and other trash. Hopefully the water levels will come up this winter.

We had the entire campsite to ourselves. Secluded, quiet, lovely, clean. Park Ranger visited us and made us feel welcomed. Lake low due to ongoing draught but still very lovely. Serenaded by coyotes and one visited us but stayed about 300 yds away. Absolutely wonderful visit.

Great view of the water from the tent at pretty much every site. Cell service is limited and the closest stores with essentials are 20-30 min drive one way.
