Campsites and restrooms are clean. Lake is overgrown with vegetation and fallen dead trees need to be cleaned up along the lake trail.

Spacious campsite; I couldn’t hear music or conversations from neighboring sites. Running water to wash dishes along the main road. Trail around the lake was about 45min walk and very pleasant. The bathroom facility near site 15 was nice but the one near site 6 was closed. We enjoyed the wooded location very much!

The park isn't as busy in the winter time but they had a couple of very large groups there that left early due to rain. One host said around 180 tent groups with lots of children. Even after the group left I was so impressed with how clean the restrooms were. Of course the facilities are old, but they are very well maintained with the hostess group in place.

We had a great trip to Double Lakes and really enjoyed our visit. The only negative for this trip was the poor cell service and having to search for and area where our phones would work.
