It was a great spot but I wish I had known that there was no shade at all before going there during the summer

Decent location, decent bathrooms, no bear box. Quiet hours are not enforced though and there was a very loud group there the same night as us who were up with music and lights until 2am.

The campsites 45 and 46 were a little difficult to find in the dark as we arrived late. But the campsites 45 and 46 in upper loop were very near to washrooms that had showers as well. The bathroom was clean and well maintained. The view of the lake was very beautiful in the morning.

A white family "older men" in campground site # 29 kept making racist remarks at our family every time we walked to the bathrooms.
The said "here comes the burrito family". They had their generator runing way past 10 PM, in fact most of the night. The evening park ranger or anyone to call. Not a good place to camp in the future.

We have camped at island park for 20+ years. It’s a beautiful spot for families. My only disappointment this time around was to see how poorly maintained the restrooms were. Even though we expect camp style bathroom, there was clearly lack of any maintenance

I didn't like the camp site because it has not shade. I was with my mom and aunts and it was not a great experience to them to be on the sun specially at almost 90 degrees
