The drive up to the campground is not for the faint hearted, but I made it up in my little Chevy Malibu. The road has switchbacks, steep grades, and no guard rails. However, it all pays off when you get to the campground. The views of the waterfall, Angel Lake, and the surrounding mountains are spectacular. Take time for a hike up to the waterfall and a dip in the lake. The bathrooms were clean. The camp host was friendly and helpful. My site had a flat gravel area perfect for a tent. My only suggestion is to find ways to make your own shade and reduce the daytime heat. If you're tent camping, leave your rain fly off during the day or swarms of insects will find it a lovely place to gather. Be sure to wake up early to catch the sunrise!

Nice scenic campground with lots of manzanita and aspens between sites resulting in nice privacy. Well appointed sites with picnic table fire/grill pits
