Caretaker was very helpful. He cleared up a misunderstanding with campsite reservations promptly. Tidy outhouses and clean site.

The amount of garbage generated by campers is insane; overflowing the bins and really undermining the outdoor experience. I think that parks and rec could be a leader in the areas of limiting single use plastic and capping how much refuse a camping site can generate per day or something along those lines. A difficult problem I'm sure but probably worth a look.
Thanks

Campers can drive on paved roads to near their camp site and park to load and unload their vehicles, but must park up above in the parking lot. I liked this because to carry things up and down that hill would have been difficult. The lake water was warm enough to make swimming comfortable. The camp was well-maintained and clean. We had a great time, even if it was only for one night.

First time camping at Fashoda. Stayed over Labor Day weekend in 2019. The weather was perfect, campground was busy but clean and very accommodating. Campground host was great. Bathrooms served their purpose. Beach access at the reservoir on both sides of the campground...walking distance to both...bring your watercraft and/or tube. Nearby hike to Bassi Falls was awesome! Will definitely keep coming back to Fashoda. Highly recommend to anyone!
