Site was clean, lots of space and not at all close to others. Surprised that campfires were allowed which adds some joy. The walk to the lake is not too bad. Water spigot close, and pit toilets a bit farther. Someone nicely put motion activated LED lights inside the outhouse which is really clever. Great camp host. Would love to return.

Always good family time camping at Trapper Creek...The water in O'Dell Lake was really warm and we got to have a camp fire this year.

The campground host, Jane was very dedicated to keeping the sites clean, removing trash and cleaning the fire pits. She frequently cleaned and checked the bathrooms and updated the reservations. She calmly worked to resolve issues any campers may have had. She was one of the most hard working hosts we have ever encountered and we have been camping for 50 years.

Great campground, with a few caveats...

1. It backs up to the train that crosses the cascades. The train goes by around five times every night.
2. Everyone just parks their boat on the beach and cuts through campsites to get there.
