Love the double pad campsites. It was clean and the grass was cut. One of our favorite places to camp since it has been redone. Archery targets and lake is also why we love this campground. It’s quite and can’t go wrong with full hooks up.

We've camped at Frank Russell several times during 2024. We love the campground but wish they would have made the pads more level.

Loved having full hook ups and concrete pad, and the sites had plenty of space and nice trees. Need to have recycling and lots were not level.
Would definitely camp here again.

The campground was fantastic. Great, wide sites and the concrete pads offer plenty of parking for rig and cars. The mature trees were in peak fall colors and the trails on the grounds were terrific. Our site didn't have much AT&T service, but many of the sites nearby had reasonable service. We had a great time and will come back.

Second stay & we loved it again! We love the concrete updated sites & small size of the campground. This time we walked the loop trail daily with our pup…the fall trees were so lovely. The camp hosts are helpful & nice. Only downside was that we stayed near the bathroom to accommodate our friends who have a smaller camper & the lights outside the bathroom were very bright throughout the night.
