We really enjoyed our stay at Lottis Creek. The vault toilet bathroom was well maintained and clean throughout our entire stay. The host did a great job maintaining the grounds as well.
We had sites 5 and 7 reserved on the Baldy loop. Nice proximity to the bathroom and private. There isn't a bad site on the Baldy Loop.

Positives: Overall we had a great time at this campground. The scenery is beautiful & peaceful. The campground is quiet. Camp hosts were very nice & helpful. The bathrooms are clean. We hiked the Union Canyon Trail that departs from the campground and it was a great hike that followed the creek, awesome scenery & rock formations.

Negatives: We were tent camping and this is more of an RV campground. The camp hosts asked us to pitch our tents on the driveway. There was a big rainstorm and water starting flowing through our tent because of the location the driveway. We ended up moving our tent and drying things up.

Lottie creek campground is our favorite campground on the Taylor river.
Only thing is there are HUGE potholes in the road at the campground. They have been there now for 2 years and are getting bigger.

The campground itself was fine. However, when I made my reservation it didn't accept our national parks pass but when we arrived it clearly indicated there was a discount for our pass. We ended up paying double for the same spot
