We always have a wonderful time at this camp ground! Bathrooms weren’t cleaned as consistently or stocked as consistently as they usually are during our recent visit, but they were half way through our stay. No firewood for sale from the host which is an inconvenience and local firewood was $9-12/bundle or you can forage for your own but bring a good axe and a strong arm. Camp site was wonderful for weekdays and really busy and loud on the weekend, so choose your experience. Fishing is great right now!

Site No. 19 has no flat spot for a tent, so we cancelled for our remaining nights and went over to Miller Lake where we found a first come first served campsite. The camp host was gone so we were unable to ascertain whether we could move to a different spot of which there appeared to be several.

This is not on the water like I thought, but there is a little trail leading to the water. Spacious site, we had 2 large tents.
