Many visitors appreciate the organized tent sites and the stunning lake views, making it a popular spot for families. However, some areas, like the playground and reservation policies, could use improvement, and guests miss the availability of running water and showers.

The campground is one of the best I've ever stayed in. Beautiful setting, huge sites, great amenities. The lake is beautiful and the old growth trees are to die for. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is noise. There always seemed to be someone running a generator and power boats and jet skis ran pretty much all day. I don't begrudge the folks making the noise their fun. It was a great scene of families having a good time.

Heavily wooded campground with a beautiful lake. Not that far off state highway 38 and close to the coast for pleasant temperatures.

We absolutely loved the campsite we had as it was pretty much by itself. I would have rated it a 5 star, but a campsite just down the way was extremely loud way past the quiet hours time on our second night. It also sounded like a bunch of mortars were being set off that second night as well.

First time at Loon Lake. The campground was very well-kept, clean (running water in sinks and toilets but soap), and camp hosts were friendly and helpful. The campground itself is on a steep hillside so the trek up and down to the lake could be a workout depending on your site location. Many campers left all beach items (shade tents, SUPs, floaties, even boats) down at the beach to avoid that shuffle. Sites were pretty close together but spacious enough for campground camping. I would recommend it—the beach is super sandy, clean, with lots of picnic tables and bbq’s. Campground seemed family friendly. Close to the beach as well, ~20minutes.

Loon lake is beautiful as is the campground. The campground and beach are some of the cleanest we have been to. The staff and camp hosts are very friendly and helpful.

Nice private sites with lots of shade. Clean restrooms. Great beach with soft sand and roped swimming area. Lots of picnic tables. Great for families with young kids. We were there on overcast weekdays and it was not very crowded. Staff was nice and helpful. The down sides were quite a few mosquitoes and motorboats/jet skis are allowed on the lake, so if your into that great, but if you’re not, it can be a bit loud.

Campground was clean and well taken care of. Limited access to potable water and no showers were available for campers.

The staff was nice & the campsite was quiet, steps away from a sand beach. I will definitely be returning!
