Pleasant small campground. Most spots are not private. Beautiful setting! Many trees in the area and lots of flowers and green plants. Clear water lake. Very nice location!
Note: I reserved #7 on the online map showing it to be right on the lake and straight-in easy backing. But when I got there #7 was two spaces to the right and up the hill to the east. It turned out to be an excellent site though, private, trees, spacious; however, it was difficult to get my 33ft fifth wheel in there because of the sharp bend and hill. But I did it. I would want that site again though.
Recreation.gov will update the campsites numbers eventually hopefully, but when I was there it was two spaces to the right up the hill from the open one I expected that unobstrucually overlooks the lake.
The highway to the campgrounds is not busy and eventually turns into a dirt road so the road is not busy. I spent a lot of time riding my bike on it.
Great view of the lake and the trees and meadows. Many of things to do nearby including lava fields, ponds and lakes, lava tube caves, waterfall trail, small towns, and Cedar Breaks National Monument.
Many sites are located close to the lake. The other small portion of the campground is directly across the road and is being revamped currently to allow large RVs to camp there. The numbering system on the recreation.gov website is not correct. Nor was it correct over a year ago. Certainly they could have fixed it by now. So to restate--we reserved site number 7 online showing it to be right next to the lake. (Actually it is physically #5.) But when we got there sitr number 7 was two places away further up the hill from where we expected to be.
Pit toilet restrooms were installed while we were there June 24 to June 28, 2024.

Zero amenities in the area.
Not enough room at any tent sites for a smaller sized tent, and ground wasn't level at all.
Original site was under construction without prior notice.
Could not even camp for more than a few hours.

Beautiful campgrounds and campsites! Because we were early in the season and spring was still hanging around we had colder than average temps, no available water in the campground, and many of the sites were still closed. We still enjoyed it (except for the cold and snow) and had a campsite with an amazing view of the lake.
