We went for our camping trip with our dog for his end of life trip. He is very old and has heart failure and this was his last camping trip. The camping host is a complete witch. My dog is old and dying and I tried to take him out in the water and she got up in our face saying he needed to be leashed.How can you leash a dog in the water,how can he swim like that? He is an old dog with a hole in his heart trying to take the last swim of his life and she ruined a very special time. I would not recommend this campground if you have dogs because the host will stalk you and make sure your dog is a prisoner and not allowed to be free at any time.

From Hills Resort & all the way to Priest Lake marina, the shoreline forest service land is still awesome. Thank-you to all the locals that take endless care of the neighborhood. The forest service restrooms & toilets were noticeably cleaner this year too. In Sept, you shouldn't need reservations. Keep an eye on day old empty sites, people often don't show up & you can snag a nice site. Smoke in Aug / Sept is hit & miss. It doesn't bother me. Smoke in the old days was due to field burning & these days we have so many #pnw wild fires.
Didn't see any bears this yr & bees and mosquitoes were low key. Saw two coyotes coming up from the lake while on a bike ride. Bicycling towards Oulet Bay is always a fav for me. Little dust & traffic & many fun views. Best food this year. Huckleberry cinnamon rolls at Chimney Rock cafe. :) PL adventures for me started somewhere in the 50s at Priest Lake lodge.
Take care & see you at the lake!

Beautiful campground with beach access. Hill’s Resort is just down the road from the campground and has delicious food.

This is a great site - you get a little peek of lake between the trees, great fire pit placement, and the trail to the lower loop and beach runs right next to the site. We stayed in mid-Sept so it was fairly quiet - except for generators running all the way up to 10pm - just don't be that person... It ruins the experience of a good fire and stargazing, folks!

Excellent camp host. Very helpful and the bathrooms were so much cleaner this year than the last few years.
Only complaint would be some guest not following rules. I heard the camp host talking to a few about keeping their dogs on a leash and the dog owners were pretty rude to host. Also one group who thought they had the right to park their boats on the beach and how rude they were to the camp host. I think those type of people should lose their right to ever camp there again.
