Nice small campground with lake access. Has a nice closed road for dog walking. Stayed at site 18, wish there was more shade. Campground ranger was nice and the airplanes didn’t bother me. Short distance to Northstar (5 mins)

Fantastic minimalist Site.

No showers or hoses. So plan on no Showers for a week or your duration. It’s more for camping Vs Big RVs

Everything went smoothly. Even added and extra day to our RV sight. Sight was easy to use also. There was no camp host as in previous years. Sight was reserved properly with our name an day in and day out. Happy with the service.

Beautiful campground. The female ranger cleaned the bathroom really well and kept supplied with toilet tissue and paper towels. Waved as she walked by us.
The road getting here needs some serious repairs; COE is better than that.

Thanks for an enjoyable stay . Charles.

Nice small campsite. Clean and nicely spaced campsites. It is near the airport but I was not bothered by the odd plane taking off.
