Our stay was at Little Blue Stem site 116. This site is next to a nice playground and one of the hiking trails. This site is especially good if you have kids. The fall trees were beautiful. We were very thankful that the water was turned back on when temperatures reached 80 degrees after an unusually cold week before this had resulted in the water being turned off. Email communication regarding the water being turned off and back on was excellent.

Aside from the fact that the water was turned off for three days, we had a very nice stay. Oh yeah, and the asian beetles swarmed us which was a challenge. The site was great and the peoole very nice. Will definitely go back!

Our site was too narrow (between a tree and power pole) to back out 5th wheel all the way back. The campground was nice, but we had a 3 day freeze and they came around and shut off the water without letting us fill up with water first. Two COE workers argued with each other to get the water turned on. Finally after some calls they turned the water on long enough for the few campers there to fill up first.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • 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. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
