We’ve been coming to this campground for the past 4 years and had a fun time with friends and family. Toilet paper wasn’t well stocked and bathrooms were out for a couple days at a time so bring some just in case. Weather was perfect! Other campers were respectful of quiet hours. We had a great time!

The campsite 4 was good. The creek was a instant win for the younger kids. The fallen tree with the root system filled with water was a breeding cesspool for mosquitoes and honestly put a damper on the trip

We booked a group site (32) which said it could house two 21’ trailers and cars, for a party 8 people. We arrived and we barely got one trailer in. There was no camp host, so we went to the next campground over. They gave us the camp host site across from our site for a fee. That seemed ridiculous since we booked a group site that wasn’t actually a group site. We would have been screwed had that not been available.
The site has standing swamp water in it which smells super gross and makes it really buggy. No big deal to us, but wanted to let people know.
Our site has water access, but we wanted more if a beach for the day for our kids. We went to Crescent for the day and when we came back a got from an interior camp site had parked his enormous fishing boat. Told us he’d be back at 4:30am to go fishing.
I don’t know the Etiquette in a place like this, but I thought it was super rude to take our water front spot for his boat. If he wanted that he should have booked the spot. We booked way in advance for this spot. He has to walk through our site. Left his ropes for kids to get all tangled in. Sunset was obscured by his ugly boat. Woke us up at 4:30 with his motor.
Pretty camp site, but I wouldn’t book this one again. And beware it’s not a group site. I think there should also be Lake facing signs saying not to park your boat at someone else’s paid site.

I would rate this particular site a 0 star if I could. The site was terribly slanted. This site should not be advertised for those who have travel trailers. We could not level our rig so we just left. Very disappointed.

The girls had issues with mosquitos. The road was close and loud. There was an unseen, but well heard, railroad nearby. There was no ranger or camp host. Someone tried to take my site and it was a long argument to get her to leave.

We will definitely come back if we can get a site by the water. We had a site by the hwy which was loud. The camphosts were great and told us about a couple different places to check out. The Salt Creek falls is a definitely a must see. There was no water but you can go to the next campground not far and fill up your jugs if needed.The lake was clear and not too cold. We stayed in site 8 which was nice because it was spacious, not too close to other campsites and by the bathrooms but the hwy was close. Beautiful area.

Good site for tent camping which we were doing. Only thing sad is that it is hard to get sites for more than one night in the summer months. Takes a lot of planning.

Yes you can hear highway noise through the night and trains from across the lake and the wind on the lake can be significant but a waterside campsite is divine! The night sky was amazing, listening to the water gently lap the shore as night set in. Yellowjackets can be pesty in August. The wind helped that.
