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.
