Chambers Lake

Clean. Quite. Perfect.

The only thing at Chambers Lake is the camp host was not to be seen so if you need something, it may take longer than expected. We also noticed that many sites were reserved with no occupants during the time they were reserved. Sadly, these beautiful sites could have been used by others seeking vacancies for a last-minute getaway. This is a problem I see with reserve only campgrounds. People rush to reserve (because they go fast), then don't show up.

Hi, Just be warned that this site is quite difficult to back a trailer in. I have a 20 ft travel trailer and had to get help from several friendly campers. There is a tree on the left and one on the right that has grown right into the parking pad. I would not recommend this site for any travel trailers.
Otherwise the site was fine. Nice and clean. Not very private but I didn't sit outside much do to the rain. Might be fun for a group if you got all 3 sites surrounding it.

The double site we had was a very nice site with nicely built tent pads, plenty of parking, and a great view. The down side was that the dumpster (right next to our parking) was overflowing and wasn't emptied until the day we left. Consequently, the flies were horrendous. The fire pit hadn't been cleaned out in a while and had trash and broken glass in it. The vault toilet was cleaned regularly, but in poor physical condition (i.e. missing signs, no coat hook, door didn't close well). I would have given a higher score if some of the deferred maintenance had been kept up. Chambers is a beautiful campground, well laid out, with great views, but due to its heavy usage it needs more time and money spent on maintenance by the USFS and/or Land & Leisure.

Great campground with clean sites and facilities. The lake was fantastic and we hiked Blue Lake Trail which is only a few minutes down the road. Stayed at site #35 (double site) and had a great stay with plenty of room and no bugs. Fellow campers were respectful and the whole campground was relatively quiet at night. Easy access to the lake for kayaking and hanging by the water's edge.

The campground and surrounding area are pristine. The vault toilets were the cleanest I've ever encountered.

FF means 'First come first served', except it wasn't. When I arrived I checked site #34 which is supposed to be FF. There was no one there, but the site post showed it reserved. I asked the host and was told someone had driven up and reserved it. I'm sorry, that is not 'first come first served.' The host should not be allowed to reserve a site that is supposed to be unreservable. I did have a reservation, so we stayed, but it tainted the whole trip. Please reverse this policy to how it has worked in the past.

Overall a great experience at this campground. Sites are very nice, spread out, and bathroom facilities are well maintained. Water access is good, and the lake is full as of 7/20/2023.

Great location right by the lake and camp spots are all spready out pretty well with lots of trees too!

Beautiful campground with lake access and lots of day hikes nearby. Our site was clean and well maintained, but unfortunately smelled very strongly of latrine.

Amazing location. Beautiful views, spacious campsites and excellent facilities. One of our favorite places out there.
