Friendly Fish and Wildlife staff spoke with me and my grandson explaining their work. Clean well taken care of site.
Unfortunately several empty unused campsites. It would be nice to figure out a way to force cancellations so the sites could be used. I am sure you are working on that.

Beautiful location, nice large campsites. Clean sites and surroundings. Could be improved by having TP in bathrooms. In a week, we never saw a ranger, even in a drive-by, and no camp host available. A nearby group left four constantly barking dogs in site while they spent the day on the lake.
Otherwise, the fireworks show was spectacular and greatly enjoyed and appreciated. Thank you.

The site was miss information on vehicle size. Campground was clean and quiet. I’ve learned to review campsites better. It’s a learning process. They do seem to have issues with keeping up with toilet paper.

Upon arrival on June 25th I found that someone was occupying my campsite B7 and was told that there was no reservation card posted. I proceeded to prove that I indeed had reservations for the site and after a long discussion I paid him the $30 fee had paid in the drop box so I could have my reserved space. I then informed two different ODF workers who took my information and said that they would have their supervisor contact me as soon as possible to discuss what had transpired. I still haven’t heard from them as to what if anything can be done to resolve the situation. Without having a camp host on site to assist me I did the best I could do to resolve his issue and then start my 13 day stay.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
