Had a peaceful night there before visiting Sequoia&Kings Canyon NP. Only us and another couple where there. No noices, just the beautiful Lake in front of our Camper Van. Restrooms where closed at that time, but nearby was an replacement. Might be a bit to remote for some, but you won‘t find a calm spot like this anywhere! Drinking water was available.

The bathrooms were both out of service and there were human excrements outside the doors because of that. We ourselves would have loved a place to go to the bathroom as driving to one was not an option since this campground is so far off the beaten path. This campground was chosen because it had bathrooms so staying here was completely useless and we would have rather stayed in a walmart parking lot.

This was a fabulous campground with gorgeous lakefront views! We came in late in the evening; but woke up to such a beautiful sunrise! Will definitely come back!

Small campground, I enjoyed it. Looked a little neglected as in dirty bathrooms and some trash on the ground but I enjoyed how small and quiet it was. Would go back.
