Our campsite was big enough for my partner and I. The fit pit was nice. The bathrooms were very clean

Lovely staff and beautiful area. We really enjoyed our stay and extended it 2 days.
Bathrooms were old but spotless, showers were hot and clean. Trash cans emptied daily.
We had great cell signal at site 41 with a weboost.

Warm and welcoming host. Campground is wonderful. Playground and boulders for kids to climb on. Beautiful views. Low lake level made for great exploring, but a bit of a bummer as there was loads of trash. Bring a garbage bag if you go on a walk.

Nice campground if you want to get away, sites are narrow if you have a motorhome (40 ft) . There are 5 sites with FHU which was great! The sites are somewhat level but we were able to adjust .

Great location if you want to get away. Sky is big and view is great. Only way it would have been better was if the lake was full.

Very nice campground well maintained, and very friendly staff. Road getting to the campground is a bit rough, but that is the County problem, roads in the park itself were excellent. Loved it there.

Fairly busy campground! The campsite itself was clean and ready when I arrived. The bathroom near my site was very clean. Planning to return for another visit soon.

Park rangers were friendly! Enjoyed the hike out to Raymond bridge and back. Sadly, the water level is extremely low.
