The bunkhouse was great. The heater worked during the night and made the stay even more pleasant. Hike around the surrounding lakes directly form the cabin or enjoy a relaxing evening at the camp fire. Each cabin has their own firepit.
Note, always check road closures as roads at higher elevation may not be open yet which makes it difficult to get to different sites at the park.

Cabin was great and clean. We were here the last week the cabins were open and they shut the water off so no water was available for showers.

Stayed in the Manzanita Lake Camping cabins. The cabins were clean, but had broken blinds (been that way over the last 3 years I’ve visited). The restrooms and showers at the camping store were filthy and in disrepair.

Everything ok. Only bad thing, the supermarket was closed (probably due to low season)

Excellent rustic cabins! No water or electricity, but well built and secure. The location by the lake is amazing!

Cozy and warm. Bear boxes at cabin sites were great. The campground bear bin trash needs a lot of attention. Many do not close and yet are full of trash which of course attracts bears! Maybe tape them off or bring in ones that work!?

Cabin 13 is spacious and clean and close to the pit toilets. The surrounding areas are spacious but you can’t see the lake well, as there is a group of young pine trees in between. Wildlife is mostly squirrels with some deer around the lake. Our neighbors wer loud and left their trash out and the squirrels got into it:-( Lake Manzanita is super beautiful, so keep it wild.
