The campground is nice and spacious with room for tents. The lake was windy most days which helped keep the smoke from the wildfire south of Sisters away but there were wind surfers on the lake one day which made me think it must be common enough to have earned a reputation as a wind surfing destination!

Great lake, nice campgrounds... we'll definitely be back. The only complaint I have is that the trail around the lake *literally* ran right through our campsite...the edge of it sure, but less than 10' from our tent and picnic table. Made for meeting a lot of people and a lot of dogs, buy zero privacy.

Nice mountain CG. This CG has close, but not direct water access near the sites. The sites are small enough that campers are majority tents or small RVs, not big RVs like at all the other CGs around the lake. We hiked the 3.6 mi Suttle Lake trail, which was nice - not much elevation, great lake views, right next to the water, but directly through some CGs and more heavily trafficked than we’re used to (not crowded, just regular meeting other hikers and bikers.) The sites have good shade, which will be important as summer heats up. Bugs were just starting to emerge the second weekend in June.

We were in space 22 at Blue Bay mid week 6/16 to 6/18. It was made for a pull through trailer but we were able to park our camper truck perpendicular to the site. It was a very large and pretty private site close to the boat ramp and small dock. All the sites are large. Sites 20 & 21 have to deal with the hikers and bikers using the trail. Sites 5 & 7 have gorgeous elevated views of the lake. Will try to get one of those some day. Will definitely come back regularly.
It was disappointing to see so many sites that were shown as reserved with no one there. I don’t know why you wouldn’t just cancel your site and free it up for others if you can’t make it.

We enjoyed our stay but the weather was not the greatest.
There was no water at Blue Bay which was not a problem for us but it could have been had our friends not called and told us about it. I did not receive the email from Rec.Gov until we arrived there. That is my biggest complaint.
A nice place to relax and enjoy Suttle Lake.

Unfortunately, we had to leave early as we ran out of water. Need to get the water system fixed.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee.
