Magone Lake

The campground was adequate. Water had to be boiled. Tent sites could be bigger and more level. A covered shelter would have been nice. We got rained on dueing supper the first evening. Otherwise I loved that it was a sunny spot with trees sureounding it for a sept. Campout.

I very much appreciated the camp hosts. They were a pleasure to talk with; had good information and were very much on top of their routine. Our campers even commented on how the cleanliness of the campsite/toilets.

I reserved the group area for me and family and friends. So clean and quiet. Even a gate that we could knock if we chose. The restrooms were spotless and there was firewood provided all throughout the campgrounds. It was an awesome experience thank you It was an awesome experience thank you

Our group of 15 people loved this group site. Very private and plenty of room for every one. The lake is a 2 minutes drive away. The vault toilets were very well maintained, which is very appreciated. Please do not hesitate to book this site.

The camp hosts couldn't be a nicer couple. I've never seen campground restrooms in such clean condition. They work around the property tirelessly and you can tell they take a lot of pride in the property. Always smiling and helpful.

The Group Campsite at Magone Lake was incredible! Not only was it perfect to allow our group of friends with RV's and trailers, next to our TENT, be assured we'd all camp side-by-side, but it was also beautiful! We enjoyed the wildlife (saw several deer) and the lush, green surroundings. The privacy behind the gate (locked, if we elected to do so) protected us from traffic driving by and theft (this has happened to us in the past). It also allowed our dogs to romp and play freely, not on a leash, tied to a stake! They got to enjoy the camping experience, as well! The bathroom was clean and well stocked! The fishing was great! Limit (5) caught every day, and they were very tasty! We enjoyed the 2.7 mi hiking path around the lake, daily! We have already reserved our spot for next year! But the secret is out.... several others had already booked, as well!
The only suggestion we would like to offer is to ADD a new sign, marking the Group Campsite, that "faces" you as you drive in. Friends of ours, who came up after work, arriving after it was dark, totally missed seeing the current sign that is on the "side" of the road/car! It was a very long night for them in their car! Because there is NO cell service (you have to drive out 10 mi to connect, if necessary), they were unable to reach out to us for help! For some in our group, depending upon which navigational system you are using, this gets lost, as well, once you hit that NO service zone!
THANK YOU for making this great spot available! Friends from Bend, OR

I really don’t want to share how much I like this place! Only downsides: chiselers that get into and eat the wires of your engine (day or night); either mosquitos, hornets/wasps or some other irritating but non-harmful black flying bugs, ticks, and fear that a fast-moving forest fire might force sudden evacuation. Still, honestly, if you are truly prepared to have fun in all this natural habitat, nothing compares to this place.
