Walton Lake is a beloved camping destination known for its beautiful scenery, clean facilities, and friendly camp hosts, Tony and Karen, who provide excellent service. Visitors appreciate the fishing opportunities, wildlife observation, and well-maintained trails around the lake, making it a perfect spot for families and nature lovers. While some faced challenges due to smoke from nearby wildfires and water issues, overall experiences are positive, with many planning to return for future visits.

Very clean campgrounds. They took care of the yellow jackets with a trap at every campsite. Beautiful setting!

Overall, the campground, campsite, and lake were beautiful. The campground is well maintained and the hosts are super friendly.
I'm not sure if I missed it when I booked the site, but I wasn't expecting to hike down to our campsite. Granted it wasn't a long "hike" at all, but it was interesting unpacking in the dark... Lol.
My only complaint is that there were lots of screaming children and barking dogs. I thought it would be quieter at the end of September but I guess we picked the wrong weekend for peace and quiet.

Very quiet campground on a beautiful small lake. Not far from the painted hills, a must see!

The campground hosts, John and Ann are awesome. John greeted me warmly as soon as I arrived. Later that 1st evening Ann drove by the site, stopped and asked if I needed anything. They keep the campground and facilities very clean.

What can you say about paradise. Great scenery. Quite. And stocked trout that are just begging to be in your frying pan. Now the best part. No cell service!!! We were in site #6 that is a reserved level pull through with lake views. The hosts are friendly and keep the place spotless. There is potable water available but like most National Forest campgrounds there are no rv hookups. There is a good mix of reserved and non-reserved sites so don't be afraid to try your luck and drop in on a weekday.
