This is our most favorite campsite to go to. It’s close to home, nice sandy beach and affordable. The sites are always clean and the camp host is always friendly and easy to chat with.

Been coming to Pike Bay for the last 45 years. My parents brought me there every year as a child I’ve brought my children now we bring our grandchildren. The campground is always clean and neat. Mike Shaffer the campground host is the nicest friendliest host ever. We return each year not just for the beautiful campground but because of Mike. He is like family to us. He makes us feel so welcome he always stops by for a chat and to see if there’s anything we need. He is the best. We will continue to come each year as long as Mike is the host. He mows as soon as people leave keeps the campground spotless the bathrooms cleaned every morning before we awake. We look forward to another 2 week stay next year so does my son and my grandchildren and my brother. We love getting spots 3,5 & 7 so we are near Mike the host. Thank you to the forest service who is always friendly and to Mike Shaffer for all his hard work and making us feel so welcome like family.

- 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.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
