Beautiful, small campground. The sites are a very short walk to the lake wiht beautiful sunset and sunrise viewing. The bathrooms were very clean. We didn't see any garbage facilities, so we packed in/out. Wished we could have stayed longer.

An amazing location! Very peaceful, and each campsite is fairly private. Gorgeous swimming in the lake, and only an hour hike to another, even more secluded lake.

Of the 5 campgrounds I stayed at during my road trip, this was by far the favorite. Perfect little oasis high in the desert. And the best smelling pit toilets (and cleanest) I've ever experience. Note the directions on the site as google maps tried to get me to go on very rough roads through fields. Luckily someone was kind enough to put a sign up about a closed gate and to go to the next highway exit. Then the road was great, winding with tight curves though (and not maintained in winter), so maybe not good for large campers/RVs.
