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.

The campground was lovely. Well-spaced camp sites. The grounds were well-maintained. My daughter noted that the vault toilets even smelled nice. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. We ended up not staying overnight as it was our first trip taking 2 dogs - one a recent rescue with anxiety - and they just could not settle. We told our host that we had decided to return home and to please let other campers know our space was available. He notified a couple who were down the road with no campsite. They were very happy to have the site. We look forward to returning and actually spending a few nights at Amanita.

This is a great little spot right on the lake. Had a lot of fun dodging and dipping under logs while we walked along the beach, sand was pristine, plenty of great spots to sit and watch the sun fade in the evening. If I make it back to the area anytime soon, this is where I’ll stay.

Site didn't have as much shade as I hoped but wasn't bad. The biggest problem is that the parking spot is going the wrong direction for backing a trailer in. I had to go all the way around going the wrong way to back it in. Distance to walk to the lake was good.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
