Great campground! Just stay out of the weeds so you don’t experience chigger outbreaks.

Recently updated with full hookups and concrete pads with firepits. A few electric only sites had paved pads, but the vast majority had been updated. Our site was very unlevel, but it was an excellent site, nevertheless. Site 41 was private and had a view of the lake through the trees. I would definitely choose this site again.

This was our second visit to Frank Russell. We love how the park was updated with the great cement slabs, fire pits and full hookups.

Campsites are great. Main road needs to be blacktopped on the rocky strips.
