My son and I had a wonderful time at Lava Lake Campground. The host and his wife were fun to get to know and they did a great job keeping the campground clean. We will definitely be returning.

Overall a good spot with clean facilities. The mosquitoes were thick in June and some of the campsites don't have a lot of shade so plan accordingly!

This campground is on Lava Lake. We had a very relaxing stay. It is well maintained. Plenty to do with trails for hiking and biking from the campground. It has a good boat ramp to launch boats and other water craft. We stayed during the week and it was not crowded. We have stayed here for the past three years in August. Lots to do in the area.

Didn’t have our name on site even though we reserved. No camp host for 3 days. Could use some tree maintenance.
