The camp host 'Red' was available and kept busy touring the facility and keeping registrations in order.

We loved our campsite spot (#26).
The host and hostess were very nice and pleasant and available.
We have an RV but we were told by friends that the bathrooms were in tip top shape.
There was an algea bloom on Lava lake so that hampered the water fun, but that isn't the campgrounds fault.
Thanks

The campsite was clean and camp host was available for questions we had. The lake had an algae bloom so that was a bummer.

Lava Lake Campground was very pleasant. Nice spacious spots. Water and restrooms and graywater dump were nice to have. Lucky to have nice camping neighbors as well. It was less buggy and warmer than the campgrounds a little to the north.
