One of the best campgrounds I have ever been to!

Tally Lake was by far our favorite stay in the entire area! You are tucked away on the farthest end of the River and the campsite had lots of trees so you also felt very alone out there. We brought a paddle board and spent our time paddling around the lake. There a lots of rocks you can jump off of into the water. We had a blast and our only regret was that we didn't book more nights at this campsite!

The campsites are large and roomy. The restrooms were clean. The beach area is nice and has an ample swimming area. The Hosts were friendly. This campground gets a lot of use throughout the season, so the sites are barren of vegetation and can get dusty during dry periods.

If you don't mind traveling 8 miles on gravel, dusty roads into and out of the Tally Lake campground location and dealing with the dust that gets stirred up by the vehicles coming and going which made the roadside sites very dusty and not pleasant, then you will likely enjoy the lake, beach area and small boat launch for water fun. The roads inside the campground are also gravel which contributes to the dust issue.
The campground is landscaped with tall Larch trees. Some campsites are available with pull-thru for larger RV's.
Not much privacy throughout the otherwise clean campground. Site 28 was nice, however, fairly open, next to the roads, and dusty. Hosts were accommodating, pit bathrooms were clean and overall a secluded campground.
