An absolutely beautiful location with tons of sites, well-maintained trails, and easy access around the lake. I got there 30 minutes before sunset and was able to set up camp AND do a hike around the lake with the orange glow on the mountains. Could not recommend enough!

This was a beautiful quiet (nearly empty in mid September) campground with access to lots of hiking trails and a picturesque lake. Toilet was clean. The camp host was frequently out and about cleaning, checking on campers, selling firewood.

Very organized and clean camp site. Clean toilets! The camp hosts were great. The lay out of the camp allows for privacy between the sites. There is no cell service for AT&T nor Tmobile.
