We thoroughly enjoyed our experience here! Bathroom wasn’t too far away, was very clean, and scenery was hard to beat!
Wish the tent pads were just a little bit bigger but that didn’t hamper our experience!
Love it here!

Very clean and quiet. Plenty of space and friendly neighbors. One boater tried to help me retrieve a lure from his boat while I fished from shore and got a lure snagged on the rocks below . I didn't know him but he was from Johnson Creek. The bathrooms were nice and somewhat dirty and had not been cleaned for a few days. they were nice though and well lit. Lots of deer roaming around. Many campers were no shows and had some of thebest spots not being used.Too shallow to fish from the bank here. Wish firewood was available as we did not bring any keeping with the rquest not to bring in outside firewood. All in all we will be back.

- 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.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
