West Lake is a beautiful area, but if you have kids please know they won't let you swim in West Lake or Dowdy Lake, so there is not alot to keep kids occupied.

Great experience at West Lake. The double sized sites are terrific for larger groups. Fishing and boating in both West Lake and nearby Dowdy Lake was terrific!

Bathroom were somewhat in poor condition. Cobwebs and not thoroughly cleaned. Not up to the standard of cleanliness we were used to.

Clean campground & toilets. Good cell reception (T-Mobile). Easy hiking trails around both lakes. Spacious & quiet campground. Website should update amenity info to reflect 30 Amp electrical hook up available at the RV sites. Also recommend the hike around Bellaire Lake. Lots of small wildflowers on the trails due to the recent rains.

I believe we should be entitled to some amount of refund. When we arrived at our site on Sunday May 21 we found that the water faucets were bagged over and out of use. The "host" told us that until test rests came back stating that the water was OK we would not be allowed to use campsite water. He did state that water was available in Red Feather Village at the public pump where donations were recommended and expected. The "host" speculated that "results" might be back on Monday May 22 but that did not happen. In fact the faucets we still closed on May 24 when we left.
In the past we have "Dry Camped" at various facilities where a discount was offered due to lack of water. No such offer was made here.
