Your campground maps for reservations don't show facilities such as water, restroom/shower, trash receptacle etc... That really sucks.

Wonderful time. Love it! But the grass was way too long!! Been going to Rend Lake for years and this is the first year of the grass being so long. Dangerous in some areas because the ground is uneven and has holes and you can’t see them. Plus this attracts more bugs! 🙁

My dog and I stayed at site 45, mostly because 46 was already taken, but still it was beautiful. The space was large and boasted a view of the lake. Kayaking was wonderful; bike trail is paved and well maintained. I did not use the bathhouse, so I can’t review that. Can’t wait to return!

The bathrooms and showers were well kept. The landscape was slightly inclined at most sites so it was a bit of a challenge to find a spot that was level for setting up a tent. The sites would be excellent for RVs, etc.
