Location is great. The facility maintenance needs help. The camp host is elderly and seems to have difficulty keeping up with the facility. We had to have a family removed from our site that had already been there a day. Then the site host made it a habit to YELL AT PEOPLE FROM THE PARKING LOT about quiet time, rather than going to individual sites quietly. I love this location but these camp hosts are making me rethink my campground choice for next year.

Sites are very large, and include a large sturdy table, BBQ and fire ring. Campground is maintained very well

I had a lovely time camping here with my friends. It felt nice being so close to the water. We had a great time playing in the water.

We had the best camping trip ever. The beach was amazing perfect for kids great for paddle boards!! Just a great time, my only complaints would be the bathrooms but they don't flush so whacha going to do.
Not a deal breaker.

Union Valley Reservoir from Fashoda is beautiful. The campground is walking distance to beach. It is clean, sites seem to be more spacious on the left side.
Bear boxes are a perfect size to store food as there are bears that roam around at night looking for snacks!
Loved it here! Will retrun.

The campground and location are great. The hosts were great. I am not sure why people are loud past 10pm though. I would like to have rules reinforced.

We have been coming to Fashoda campground annually for the last 25 years. And I want to say that this was the best. Our host was so sweet, she kept our restrooms clean and stack. Thank you for making our stay wonderful.

Fashoda is a beautiful campground on the reservoir. It's a close drive to the Bossi Falls hike.

We had a great time beer going NG there for years always stay in 21. Camp hosts are always willing to help keep bathrooms clean and campsites cleans and safe. Wish I could get that one every year.
