It was a good campground for late season camping. Be prepped for the wild donkeys. They may or may not keep you up at night. We had 28’ 5th wheel for some of the sites that would have been tight. It fit well in the site we were in. The echo bay maintenance guy was really helpful. We would camp here again.

Just a quick stop over, the restroom was clean, flushing toilets, running water
( bring your own TP) the sites were nice, picnic table and fire pit, sites were close together but lots of bushes to separate the sites. A convenient store within walking distance was a nice surprise.

Nice quiet campground. The lake is a bit farther away than the last time we were here. Liked hearing the wild donkeys calling during the night.

This site doesn’t have any shade, whereas the sites next to it have lots of shade. Great view of the lake, just wish there was more shade!

27 was a smaller spot. Spots are close together so you will hear all your neighbors. Site has bathrooms but were not upkept well. Broken toilets and no toilet paper. Scenery was OK. Beautiful night skies. The appeal is driving down to the lake (will be a longer walk). Swimming available at the lake.

Camp sites are large. Potable water nearby. Host was friendly. Toilet facilities very dated and poorly maintained.

We didn't mind having to go online to pay for our spot. The reason we didn't give 5 stars is because not all the spots were on the website.

Requested a specific site to do astrophotography, but when I got there someone was in my space. Luckily was not busy so took another site for 2 nights which no one claimed. Could have been a problem if it was crowded. Also no ranger was available and 2nd bathroom was locked.
