Gorgeous campground with lots of trees and shade. We stayed in the Dean Gardner loop, but drove through some others. All are fantastic. The lake is lovely and we even fought a couple trout! Can’t wait to come back!

Very nice campground! Quiet little fishing spot for rest and relaxation. Camp host Jenna was great. Very helpful and attentive, keeping things in ship shape.
Found the "free-range" cattle roaming the campground a surprise. Mooing echoing off the mountainside at 2:30 am.
