There were many resevered sites that did not show up for the week — I wish there was a way to notify cancellation and make it available for others who want a site on short notice

The camp host was so friendly we have encountered some in the past at different locations that have made us not want to return. The camp hosts here let the people camp. I really liked that. Someone had logged in the sites we had and we were told didn’t finish the job so logs were down right where the best tent sites would be. Our sites were overgrown and needed some TlC otherwise it was a good experience. Fishing was good. Loved the trail to Shelter Cove.

Halfway through our camping trip they wouldn’t let us have a fire. Very cold and wet. Forest service is getting worse each year putting more restrictions and earlier restrictions. Soon you won’t even get to have a fire. Trapper creek on Odell lake is a wetter location then others and should have it’s own individual restrictions placed on it based on the realities at the site, not based on the conditions 20 miles to the east where it is dryer and hotter.
