The campsite was great, but parking at the lake was difficult. The rules recently changed so there is no day use parking by the lake, which doesn’t work if you have small children.

Chapman Campground offers a beautifully maintained environment with exceptionally clean bathrooms and friendly, helpful hosts. Campers appreciate the spacious, accessible sites and nearby recreational opportunities, including hiking and fishing. While some guests noted issues with water quality and occasional odor from outhouses, the overall experience is highly positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Great facility and camp spot but couldn’t believe how busy the lake has got with day use people! There was very little room anywhere on the shore to set up the SUP.

We stayed in Loop H. All sites on this loop were great sites! Our site had plenty of shade and a nice picnic table and fire pit. Lots of wildflowers everywhere. If this campground wasn’t 5.5 hours from home, I would definitely come back regularly.

Love the area and the new campground hosts are terrific, despite the fact that they're Chiefs fans!

Our family camping was a great success due to the condition and location of the Chapman group campsite. The camp sites were wooded and near the Frying pan river and a lake which was within walking distance for most campsites. The vaulted toilets was kept very clean and almost odorless.

Great camp hosts! Clean, large campsites and toilets. We stayed in G loop which was close to the river and easy walking distance to the lake. G 57 and G 58 are close together; recommend getting both sites for a bigger family.
