The park is very clean. I would recommend bringing leveling equipment for RV as some spots are not level.
The kids had a great time with the 4th of July bike parade put on by the park rangers.
It was a relaxing time and I would stay here again.

This was a wonderful camp ground! Very quiet and the camp host was wonderful. It's a very large camp with lots of group camp sites, a play ground and showers. We were in site #7 and while it was absolutely beautiful and very shaded, it was quite noisy, as we were right by the highway out to Doreena Lake. It was my own mistake! It's a beautiful site, just plan to bring ear plugs or something . Hahaha! We will definitely be back.

Clean, nicely laid out park. Very nice trail to hike. Play structure for kids. Picnic table & fire pit at each site. Would be perfect if it had hookups.

Campground is excellent. I was surprised to find great WiFi. Great place for bikes with the "rail to trail" bike path just up the road. We visited 4 covered bridges by bike. Close to Cottage Grove for a brewery visit. Campsites close to the road are a bit loud due to traffic.

This park is extremely strict. We got a written warning after being asked one time for a dog to be placed on a leash. We felt watched the entire weekend by the staff. It was very hard to relax here. I would not recommend camping here.
