Water at station south of Coolin turnoff non-potable. Counted on that water supply for past 30+ years. Water at Osprey smelled of mold. Pleas for testing to ranger station and to others (several calls by camp host) resulted in lack of accountability and a "pass the buck" attitude. Had to boil water for coffee, etc. Will camp elsewhere next year. Noted Luby had clean water. NEVER had this happen before. Spent 5 days of our reservation at home (Spokane) because of this.

Lovely campground, clean and well-maintained! My campsite was large with beautiful trees, and there was plenty of space between campsites. There is a nice little path that takes you to the shore of the lake. Bathroom has running water with a toilet, sink and mirror. Hosts were friendly and helpful and told me all about the wildlife in the area. I will certainly camp here again the next time I'm in the area.

Great camper & tent sites (no power) with picnic table and grill over firepit. Bear warnings. Surrounded by trees. Close enough to the next site to hang out, far enough for privacy.

We love the small campground . It’s quiet and great access to walks, hiking , kayaking & biking !
The campground is so well kept. The new camp host Jody was friendly & is taking excellent care of the “park”!!!
It’s so clean & the restrooms are clean also !
She said she takes care of things as she would like ! And that shows !
Next time we go I’ll take her a treat !
Can’t wait to go back !!
