Great campground. Mosquitos were an issue, but they went away by 10pm every night.

The mosquitoes were really bad, but that’s par for the course this time of year. The fishing was great, and we enjoyed swimming and playing in the water at little lava.

Campsite was well maintained and clean. Beautiful lake and view of the mountain. Mosquitoes are very heavy this year. Camp Host was nonexistent. Never said hi or was seen around the campsite unless checking the bathrooms. The last night, before I went home a day early, a neighboring site had loud (yelling and screaming) and drunk campers until 1am, I went to the host who did not wake up over multiple attempts and ended up confronting the campers myself. Before that I had asked them to quiet down multiple times which had no effect.

We had a wonderful four night stay at Lava Lake. It’s one of our favorite places to kayak, when the toxic algae is not blooming. The campground was quiet and the bathrooms were clean.
