The campground was well kept and very peaceful. Some neighbors ran a generator most of the day to charge batteries to run a trolling motor on their boat. Apparently no one notified them that the lake is a “no propeller” lake.

Soldier Lake has really gone downhill since it has changed vendors. No firewood onsite. Sites are not mowed or raked. Toilets are disgusting. Noise is not enforced whatsoever. If this is what privatized management of public lands gets us, we're getting ripped off.
