Yeah I would of LOVED to know ahead of time that G1 is a site next to the boat rentals. Payed $311 for a view of littered kayaks and strangers constantly coming past my site. The map just says it's G2- another site, but that's clearly not the case. The leaf blowing neighbor has been a great touch. "No fishing" and "No swimming" says the signs. Can't imagine what I'm going to do here now. I came really far from the other side of the country to visit family for this. Extremely disappointed.

The sites are very easy to back into and they do have pull thru sites as well. There are cabin rentals available, beach sand raked and clean at the swimming area. The lake has rafts and a float to swim to. Check in smooth and kind staff. My pups were welcome and yours are too just not on the beach.

We have stayed in campgrounds across the United States. Most are adequate for our needs. Sometimes, we find ourselves in a campground like Calef Lake. Clean, quiet, and run by the nicest people. They went out of their way to accommodate our unique needs. Would recommend this campground to anyone who may be looking for a place to stay while in this area. Outstanding work, and thank you for a pleasant experience.

We stayed here in late August in our RV. Had full hookups. The staff was friendly and the bathrooms/showers were always clean. Was very ROWDY on Saturday night: live band and lots of fireworks, so if you like that, then this campground is for you. Most of the campground is seasonal campers that have been in place for a while. The owners should have the seasonal campers maintain their sites better imo.
