Chewalla Lake Recreation Area

Very nice campground. Chuck has done an amazing job fixing it up.

Camp Hosts greeted us as we pulled in. Filled us in on what was available and where it was. We asked about fire wood. Before we had backed into the site, he had delivered a small arm load of split wood. Wish we had more time to explore the place more thoroughly.

Very peaceful campground. When we were at the campground, we were the only campers in the campground. Very nice sites and a lot to accommodate big rigs. Only electric and water but a dump station. nice trails and lake. Chuck works hard to keep up the place.

Had a great time during our stay at Chewalla. The place was clean and tidy, and well-represented by the campsite host who was friendly and helpful during our stay. Good fishing off the dock (caught 7 or 8 cats here) and throughout the lake (averaged 1.5/hr over 4.5hrs or so). Still a little cold for good fishing imo.

Hot showers, washer and dryer with detergent and dryer sheets, firewood available, everything we expected and then some. We have no complaints, and will definitely be back if it fits in our schedule.

This park is a hidden GEM! We stayed in a 25 ft travel trailer we tow behind our truck. We loved every second of being there and wish we could stay longer. The site is incredibly clean, easy to maneuver, camp host and his wife were so friendly! We only wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely recommend if your passing through or headed for a weekend!!!

Beautiful and peaceful night, would stay again!

You can tell the new camp host has really put his heart into this place. There were tons of new renovations, the bathrooms and showers were super clean and the host was very welcoming. We only spent a few hours here the morning after we arrived, but we easily could have spent the whole weekend.

When we arrived, only two other campers were in the entire campground, which looked run down. The roads needed repair, and the sites looked infrequently used. I met the camp host and asked what was up. He said he was a volunteer who had signed on to restore the campground, which had fallen into ruin and had been shut down for a while. If it weren't for him, I would have left. He reassured me it was safe.

This campground could be a real gem if it were properly funded. It needs money and more help to restore to its former glory. I hope this happens, as it would be a treasure unrealized if not.

The camp host is a real caring patriotic host. He needs help. He cares and deserves more support.

Would I recommend others stay there? Yes, definitely. Especially to show that this campground is worth saving.

Please increase funding and support to bring it back to life.

Loved the campground hist! Very helpful and knowledgeable. Campground was really nice. Great sites and pretty lake. Good trails for exploring.

Campground is secluded and very peaceful. Campground host is friendly and working hard to maintain the campground. Recommend taking hammocks to relax and watch the fireflies at night.

This place is beautiful! The campsites are spacious and the facilities are nice.
