We love this campground, but site 46 has very limited shade and it was very hot during our stay. I will select a different site when making future reservations. The lake view is great and lots of grass space if you camp with dogs.

This spot has a great view of the lake and lots of open space to walk to the beach and to get the dogs out of the camper. Showers are pretty close and in decent shape. Brightness at the showers brought lots of bugs, but whatever. Camp host was very friendly.

Beautiful campground. We arrive without reservations and the campground host recommended site 73 ( electric only). What gorgeous site! Restrooms were clean. The beach is across the road from the campground. It looked very nice but the weather was too cool for swimming. One of our favorite COE’s.

Beautiful site. Very level and easy to back into. Highway noise was a little overwhelming at times but certainly quieted down at night.
Dump site doesn’t have water available for black tank flush.

The camp hosts and the facilities are excellent. They take care of the grounds so well and I am always taken back by how beautiful this loop truly is. On top of that the phone reception is awesome also.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- A camping permit is required and must be obtained at the park booth. Limits apply to equipment and vehicle parking.
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.
