Beautiful campground with spacious RV sites that are also plenty deep. Many sites including mine didn't have much for shade, but slope of the site was very manageable and the staff were great.

Not a bad spot on site 23, the spot for fire pit needs to be reworked, the chat rock has turned to fine stuff that tracks into your camper like sand. There is johnson grass growing tall behind site 23 at gun creek that needs to be kept cut or sprayed.

Beautiful campground on our way out west. Nice restrooms, but would be nice to have hand soap. Other than that, great experience. Our second time here.

Spent 4 days there. Very clean campground with awesome views of the lake. We were in spot 84 which was great but the include made it a little difficult getting the camper completely leveled.
