We LOVE this smaller campground. The bugs were bad; however, as bad or slightly worse than the main campground.
There is NO cell service at any campground. You must get up to the top of the ski hill or drive to a higher elevation. This is quite nice to be disconnected while visiting this amazing place.
We were sad to not have the SxS shuttle service to the top of the mountain for the downhill mountain bike trail but understood.
The Starbottle Saloon is THE BEST. GREAT food, beer and cocktails. Loved the new margharita pizza. The staff is FANTABULOUS.

Sites @ & 3 are probably the nicest. The campground was quiet, clean and super peaceful. Quick walk across the street to Anthony Lakes proper and access to all the trails and activities you could want. The electric hookups are ideal for camping here. I came in mid June and temps went from mid 60's on Friday afternoon to mid 20's by Monday morning. Be able to plug my van into shore power was great. There was elk and bald eagles around too. Definitely would like to come back here again.

Love this place! The addition of power was a great idea. Clean, nice toilets, quiet campground.

Very scenic location. Lots of wildlife in the area. We were there at a slow time in the season and had the campground to ourselves. In a busy time, the sites would be too close together though.

Site and restroom was clean.
The campground itself was swampy and had many mosquitos.
Sites were on the smaller side, but not crowded. No water at the site.

Number 2 was not a good spot for an RV. Beautiful and quiet there!
