There are 2 small beaches on either side of boat ramp, but family's are using dock for their water fun making it hard for boaters to use ramp. Kayakers also need to be aware. I am a kayaker and stay to the farthest side of ramp. Please be considerate.

I love Lava Lake. The campground is always clean and the sites are typically really, really large. Even the tent-only sites have room for multiple tents and space. Great service now, too. I had two-three bars on Verizon. Always availability and good access to the lake.

Loved this campground, not only were the camp sites very site but the views were amazing and the staff at the camp store was friendly as well as helpful. The only drawback was all the mosquitos but they have no control over that - bring spray or non toxic mosquito candles.

Very nice campground with large sites. Easy access to both Big and Little Lava lakes, plenty of trails in the area. Pit toilets were kept clean with daily service. The nearby resort has a camp store to buy propane, gasoline, food, and has a RV dump site. This is a good base to paddle the popular nearby lakes like Hosmer, Elk, Fawn, etc. Sites are heavily wooded so a portable solar panel helps to chase the rays that make it to the ground.

We couldn’t stay due to the heavy smoke out there unfortunately! It looked like a nice place but we had to turn around and leave due to wildfire smoke:(
