Nice size spaces. Sandy at waters edge. Enjoyed kayaking.

Lemolo Lake Poole Creek Campground is great. The recent change in concierge on the other hand is a disappointment. They jacked up the prices and other than clean bathrooms it is a down grade from the forest service. Less garbage cans, rude camp host. Just not what it’s always been with kind engaging camp host.

The guests staying all over this campsite were incredibly loud until 2-3am, with no regards to quiet hours. The restrooms were just okay (pit toilets, not recently cleaned out) and there were no trashcans near our campsite. The campsite itself was good and the lake was nice. There are no food boxes, so you have to store everything in your car.

A very enjoyable stay. The camp hosts were working very hard to take care of the campground and guests. We had the cleanest bathrooms that I ever remember in a campground. Great campground with good views and easy access to the lake.

Loved this spot! Campsites were roomy and we had a spot with lake access. Soo nice! The bathrooms were.. not great but it’s an outhouse. We can’t wait to come back here!

We had a beautiful spot by the lake. The toilets were quite clean for being put toilets. The only complaint was noisy neighbors and generators running a lot. But it was a nice weekend overall.
