What Guests Are Saying
Amanita campground is situated in a beautiful area near Lake Cascade, offering easy access to the lake and wildlife viewing opportunities. Many visitors appreciated the natural setting and the availability of clean facilities, with some sites having direct access to the beach. However, concerns were raised about the lack of shade, tight spaces for larger trailers, noise disturbances, and the presence of poison oak and ivy. Overall, while the campground has positive aspects, improvements are needed for a better experience.

We identified a large amount of Poison Oak and Poison Ivy in the camping area. Some of it right in the campgrounds. There was a sign warning about bears, but no sign warning about the very harmful plants. We recommend posting warning about the poison oak and poison ivy.

Positives:
1- campsite is lake front!
2-Lots of wildlife, birds, egrets, cranes, ducks, geese, ravens, deer, etc.
3-easy to access
Could be improved:
1- while lakeside, the only way to get your watercraft in the lake is either to boat ramp or down a steep crevice right behind the campsite.
2- No shade is this site, bring your canopy
3- Road noise is apparent.
Overall, I would not book this spot again, maybe another lakeside spot.

They cut down almost all the trees. Plan on lots of sun. Great campground though and right on the water.

Nice campground. Clean facilities, great little beaches along the shore. Site oo2 was a bit of a disappointment. The camper pad is against the grain of the one way road. We had to go the wrong way to be able to back in. The trees have all been cut around the site and along the highway, due to beetle kill. So there's hardly any shade. The picnic table is broken and missing one of the table top slats. Lots of thistle.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
