Beautiful campsite and absolutely gorgeous lake. Perfect for stargazing. I wish the prices were lower, but the place was clean and nice. The vault toilet was clean, and the property was well kept

We really liked our site (Loop 1, site 3). It backed up on the forest, wasn't right next to the toilet, and had good separation from the adjacent sites.

Great place. Very nice host. Hiking trails close. Great store close with ice, beer and firewood. Make sure you reserve an outside loop site.

The 2 lakes were beautiful, as was the hiking. My campsite was not private enough for my liking. The vault toilets, which i usually don’t mind, were super smelly. I had a lovely morning kayak on little lava lake, and then i left, and didn’t stay for my 2nd night.

We stayed Thursday through Monday. When we got to the camp site there was no potable water working at the campground. There was no notice made that there would be no water. All camps had to go to lava lake lodge to get what water we could and the people who ran the lodge were not happy that every one was coming there for water. I was charged full price for the stay. They finally got just one water hydrant working on Saturday evening. It would have been nice to have been prepared, knowing water was not going to be available.
