Nice clean, quiet campground right on Lemolo Lake. Camp host was very nice and attentive. Sites are large with good distance between most spots.

We had reserved the group campground for the 15th thru the 22nd, and you kicked us out at the last minute. Gave 1 weeks notice so we had to scramble to find a place to go and low and behold, Poole Creek was the only choice by reservation only. The group campground would have cost much less for the all of us and it ended up costing us each $50 bucks more. So, we all camped spread out but we still socialized and ate together. I would like to know why Kate Brown had the authority to shut down a Federal Campground.
