The campground features well-maintained facilities, including the cleanest pit toilets, and offers beautiful scenery with good fishing and hiking opportunities. However, guests have expressed concerns about deep potholes in the roads and issues with the dump station water supply that need attention from management.

Absolutely beautiful! If you have the opportunity to stay at this site I highly recommend it! All of the sites are far enough apart that you have plenty of privacy, and you are always close by to the restrooms and water spouts. The camp host was super friendly and welcomed us right away! She always stopped by to check in on us when she went on her rounds. If you’re tent camping in early June make sure you bring a heater and a long extension cord as the nights can be very cold, but if you prepare right you should be fine. Town can be a 30-45 minute drive so make sure you have everything you need before you arrive. Overall this was one of the most beautiful sites I’ve ever camped at and I look forward to visiting it again in the future!

Lottis Creek is one of the nicest campgrounds I visited all summer. The group camping area is outstanding. The campground overall is excellent.
I also enjoyed how shaded the non-group camping sites are. They're flat pads at medium to large size (two tents and a shade cover easily fit, lots of big driveways), and the pit-houses were as immaculate as could be. All that's missing are any bear-boxes, but that's minor.
The only disappointment was learning that the Taylor River in this stretch of area is largely inaccessible due to private land ownership - such a shame, and no fault of the campground of course, but visiting anglers beware! Alternatively, the Taylor Reservoir is close and fishes well. Lottis Creek also offers some fun and technical fly-fishing too; I caught small trouts, some up to around 6-7 inches.
Looking forward to visiting again next year!
