Camp host was very helpful and made rounds regularly. He assisted me in finding a first-come first-serve spot that would accommodate our camper van.
There was plenty of potable water, garbage cans, restrooms, and the campground was clean.
Anthony Lakes is a premium location offering hiking, kayaking or paddleboarding, fishing, rock climbing, and bicycling during the summer.

Anthony Lakes is an absolutely beautiful place to visit and the campground is a nice place to stay. There is access to a variety of hikes to local lakes as well as the Elkhorn Crest Trail as well as kayaking. It's one of my favorite places to spend a few days just relaxing and enjoying the outdoors!

Camp host was terrific young man that helped straighten out a miscommunicated site reservation. All parties were satisfied with the the solution to a double reserved site. It also helped that there were open sites and that most sites are very nice.
