The campground is awesome, the view is incredible. The spots are very large so you are not on top of each other. The campgrounds hosts that are there, 2 of them, complete the experience. You can't ask for more friendly fun people.

I came with a friend so I shared campsite 36 for the week and I enjoyed the location near the water. For some reason these little tiny flies were bad so that was my only disappointment. The campground provided a nice shower and bath facilities. The camp ground was quiet and there were no children at the time I went. I appreciated the quiet and I had several projects to work on at my site so I was not disturbed. People were nice and the main attendant at the gait was very nice. I would go again.

We were in site 32. It is great! It is shady and paved. Camp hosts are helpful but no overbearing. We will go back!

Boulder was such a wonderful experience! The grounds are maintained really nicely, they come around every morning and clean out the fire pits, the staff was amazing and so friendly! Of course, the beauty of the lake is incredible and the campground for a holiday weekend so peaceful!! Definitely will be back.

It’s beautiful. Employees were super nice and accommodating. The only issue I had were how bad the bugs were. We camp all the time at different locations and I’ve never experienced bugs like that before.
