Love the quietness and spaciousness of the sites at this campground! Our only suggestion is that we missed not meeting the hosts. The never came by even to wave or say hi during our stay. We enjoyed meeting the hosts from our previous stays, but this time they were pretty much hermits.

And the toilet paper closest to us ran out by the evening and not replaced til sometime late morning g. Note to self; bring additional toilet paper .

This was an amazing camp. My friend and I wanted to camp here so we could spend the day at Crater Lake and it worked out really well. There was tons of space in between my camp and others. There was not a single issue I can think of. The views and trees were both so beautiful. There was also 5G for my Verizon phone, which was surprising, I highly recommend it!

Policies & Rules

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.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
