A beautiful quiet park and a great place to camp. The bathrooms are in badly need of renovation. However, the volunteer staff does a good job of keeping them clean. A negative is many campers book sites and then fail to show up leaving them empty. Please cancel your booking if you do not intend on showing up.

Double Lake is a quaint and excellent campsite for those of us who love camping but hate the cramped style of campsite that has you in lots, leaving you at the mercy of who shows up next to you and how loud they decide to be. Every lot is seperated by patches of woods, giving a beautifully private feeling. This is the perfect campsite for the peaceful camper.

The campground is beautiful and very spread out. Camp sites are further apart and more private than in most other national campgrounds or state parks that we have been to. It was fun watching otters swim in the pond.

Our campsite was nice, not too close to any others, so we had some privacy. There isn't much in the way of activities for kids (playgrounds, etc.) except for what you bring yourself. Overall though we had a good time.

Everything was pretty wonderful. The trails were nice, the restrooms were clean, our camp hosts were very friendly and informative. One of the womens showers had quit working and they were already in the works of having it fixed. The lake was such a beautiful site.
