There was no camp hose at all. So I would say that varies when camp host is there. There was someone cleaning the restrooms so those were very clean! We had reserved our site months ago, when we pulled up, there was someone who parked their vehicle in our spot (as well as their friends in someone elses spot). Inconvenient and kind of rude, because there were several FCFS spots available or they could have used the day use area. Other than that, quiet but windy at times. Bring shade since there are mini quaking aspens.

If you like noise, you will love this place! There is the highway right next door, there are groups of people (20+) at single sights celebrating parties AND, best of all, there are freight trains running pretty much right through camp in the middle of the night. You will for sure wake up a dozen times...

Gorgeous scenery with a beautiful lake. Water was off and it was pack in- pack out, but the view made up for it. Sites are small.

Brrr, was it cold! Our fault, for not realizing the campground would still be partially snowed-in, with temperatures down to freezing, at the end of June. Waking up with an absolutely stunning view of the snowy mountains and beautiful little Angel Lake just steps from the campsite made such minor inconveniences like the cold seem trivial, though. A hidden gem off the beaten path!
