One of my favorite campgrounds, the sites are not too close together and there are plenty of trees and shade in the tall pines. The host at this campground was very nice and gave great info about the short walk to Turquoise Lake from my site. It is very easy to get on the Turquoise Lake nature trail from the site. As an extra plus, the host keeps the bathrooms very clean.
Thanks for a great stay!

This is a beautiful campground. However, this particular camp site is horrible for tent camping. We slept on a slanted hill, as the only option. The weather was rainy and cold so we bailed the second night.

This was an excellent experience. The grounds are very well kept, and the gentleman working there was professional and courteous. I will go back again in the future. Very nice spot!

We had an enjoyable 2 day trip with friends. Our campsites were clean and roomy. The camp host was helpful. We hope to return sometime.

Site 43 is a nice site in terms of neighbors. If you have a trailer, the front end will need to be extended considerably.
The site is in need of several tons of fill to lessen the drop off.

Great site! Great campground host! I was wonderful being there when there were not many people camping. I have been to this CG when in the height of the summer and it was a bit bonkers. This was a chill relaxing weekend with the woman I love, and it was perfect!
