This is a great little campground. Our spot had a path right to the beautiful lake. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the toilet was very clean. I also love that we had cell service; first time ever for camping. We will definitely be back.

Sites very close together, spots not well maintained, very little shade. Not one we will add for future visits.

We drove all the way from Boise for this campsite and were extremely disappointed when we arrived. The site looked nothing like the photos online. The pictures made it appear much larger, had lots of shade, more maintained, and far more usable than it actually was.
There was absolutely no shade anywhere on the site, which was a major issue given the summer heat with children. The area was mostly tall, dead grass, and there wasn’t enough suitable space for our two tents. The campsite felt much smaller than advertised, and my husband’s truck barely fit in the parking area.We were so disappointed that we didn’t even stay. After arriving and seeing the condition of the site, we packed up and left immediately to find another campsite. It was frustrating to spend the time and fuel driving from Boise only to discover the campsite was nothing like what was represented in the listing. For $48 for 2 nights it was a total let down and we took a loss. Accurate photos and descriptions are important when families are planning camping trips. The campsite said it can accommodate up to 8 people and we only had 4 of us.
Unfortunately, this campsite did not meet our expectations and we would not book it again.

Site 7 is absolutely beautiful! Right on the water, the sunrise and set is breathtaking. Camp sites are placed well far enough apart. Vault toilet was exceptionally clean. I just love this part of Idaho!
