As others have said, no camp host. However, location was gorgeous and we had a wonderful time. Easy to walk from loop c to the lake shore. Close to crater lake. Vault toilets were almost completely full at the time so hopefully they empty them soon.

The sites in the A loop were well spaced with privacy and great Lake access. The view is incredible and just a short drive to Crater Lake. Cell reception was spotty, it worked lakeside but not always in our campsite. The host was great, bathrooms were clean and the lodge close by was nice for restocking ice and drinks. There is a ton of wood around that was dry and easy to collect for fires. A bear that came through at night and knocked over the trash, but didn't bother people at all.

Attended a wedding in the area so I reserved a spot here for the night about 6 wk in advance. It was the last spot available so I wasn’t expecting an ideal site. I was delighted to find a beautiful, private spot with fire ring and picnic table, near enough (but not too close) to the restroom and right across from the lake. Had a small path from my site to the shore and was able to take my chair and enjoy the sunrise there. Fellow campers were respectful of noise and curfews. Only thing to be aware of is the ground squirrels. They are bold and they are everywhere. I had one climb up under the hood in the morning but since it was so early I couldn’t yell or bang on the car to get him to leave! He was eventually convinced it was in his best interest to move on. A closer inspection of the site revealed many burrows, so do be sure and bring food inside your vehicle.
No electricity at site. Restroom is just a toilet (no sink) and there are no showers. I wasn’t bothered by bugs. There were some bees at the shore, but they were doing their bee thing in the plants and not bothering anyone. All in all, it was a great place to stay.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • 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.
