It’s a decent space. But don’t be surprised if you find horse poop on your site. Also, NO HOT WATER. The bathrooms were in rough shape- with bugs crawling around. I had to pass on a shower. This campground needs some help and updated maintenance.

100% recommended! Everything was well maintained. The only downfall was the lack of water hydrants, just had to haul water across the park. Very clean. Vert safe. Loved it.

I love going to rockhaven but this time was pretty disappointing I was told I could not overnight came on Friday because the trails did not open until Saturday morning which I was ok with at first I even called to make sure I couldn’t park in day parking overnight and was told no so I get there Saturday morning first thing and see that a lady that lives down the road that help maintain the trails has let 3 or 4 of her friends in on Friday and let them came on lake property without paying and acts like it’s her own campground very disappointing in how it was handled and still never got a answer as of why she has a key when she is not a employee

Such a hidden gem. Wonderfully quiet, has showers, and nice flat spots for tents (which I need). Good trails to hike and close to the lake. No direct access which helps keep it quiet! Might be busier I'm the warmer season, but great in November!

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
