We camp at Island Lake several time each year. The hosts there are always good and very accommodating, this summer the new ones are terrific. The rest rooms are clean, the camp spots spotless. They are around and through the campground several time each day. They are doing a great job and I am sure they are not paid enough.

This campground is clean and beautiful. Our campsite was level and had a bit of shade. We were on the lake. The bathrooms were clean and are individual spaces (4) with a toilet , sink and shower in each.

We loved this campground! It's beautiful with abundant wild flowers and native plants. Much nicer than some of the closely trimmed camp sites we've been in previously. The sites are roomy and very well maintained. We love the configuration of the sites. The biffies are extremely clean. The hosts are pleasant and as helpful as they can be. The only negative statement I can write is that some of the biffies' tanks are way too full. The septic tank cleaning truck needs to visit. We hope to stay at this campground next year. Hopefully, we'll time the sun better.

  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
