Kaspian Campground

I really loved the location of this campground with great views and access to THE LAKE. There was a black bear running around per usual in this part of the late season. Host did what he could to deter the bear, but that's prime bear country for you! Sites are great with good space between each other. Bear lockers are in good shape (use them!). The only potentially negative thing for some people might be the steep steps from the parking lot and a little more uphill trail to reach the sites. To me, this was nice but for some people it might be a drag. Yes, the busy road is nearby but during my time there it wasn't a problem.

The bears are getting gusty in the campground by approaching your site while occupied and coolers exposed and a fire going. They’re just getting desperate before hibernating. What an experience

Overall, our stay was okay. The campground was surprisingly quiet despite being close to the main road, which we appreciated. Our campsite was clean and had everything we needed, including a campfire ring, bear storage, and plenty of space for our tent.

The main thing we wish we had known ahead of time was the accessibility of our particular site. Getting to it required going up stairs and over a hill from the parking area, which made carrying all of our camping supplies to and from the site pretty difficult. The bathrooms were also located quite a distance below the parking area and required going down the stairs.

We still had a comfortable stay, but I would definitely recommend checking the location and accessibility of your specific campsite before booking, especially if you have a lot of gear, young children, or anyone in your group who may have difficulty with stairs or hills.

Great view from the campsites. Definitely a lot of road noise but I was fine with that. Only 1 bathroom with a sink.

We were aware how close we were to the road but not aware that construction would be going on from 8pm - 6am. Constant bright lights making it feel like day light, with a them breaking up the road all night was impossible to sleep. Who ever runs this establishment failed to communicate this disturbance. Simply because management lacks caring about any guest I would never return just because I know they would not tell paying guest about any inconvenience.

Stunning views and well kept campground

It’s true when they say you walk into your campsite so pack the bare minimum for a night or two. The camp host was very helpful and tentative to bear sightings and getting them out of the campground. There was construction work overnight on Highway 89 which made for a loud evening, but it’s only temporary.

The walk in to site 9 was excessive. We are in good shape and were exhausted after lugging our gear in and out. A wheelbarrow or large wagon would be helpful. There’s also a problem bear that was stalking our site. We caught it sneaking up to us in the dark to try to steal food even though it was all in the box. It was very desensitized to humans (took a while for it to leave) and eventually got someone’s food a couple sites away. I’ve been around bear my whole life and this bear was the most brazen I’d ever seen.

Weather was great for stay. Love the location of Lake and public dock nearby. Host very attentive for bears and safety of campers. Rinse off shower or electricity connections would help location and campers.

Host was great. Road noise was a little more than I would prefer. Fire pits were so tall you couldn’t see the fire unless you built a massive one. A neighbor did not abide by the bear rules and a large cinnamon colored black bear got into all of their food and hung out a bit much. My dad and I named him Cecil. Be sure to keep your food and scented things put away properly and it should be no issue.
