we unfortunately were in a camp spot that was washed out in a severe rainstorm. The host came to warn us to move to higher ground which we appreciated. She reported this was a repeat of a storm the previous week when there was a flash flood. We just wish we had a warning to be prepared as the rain began, instead of a panicked dash after 90 minutes of rain.

I love the tall trees that surround the campground and the trees provide plenty of shade. The camp spots had plenty of room between each site. The camp hosts were wonderful and so nice. There was a flood that washed out most of the campground two days before we arrived and it was all cleaned up when we got there, they did an amazing job with all the labor they put in. The fire from last year devastated the surrounding mountains, but the campground was not harmed by the fire. Although the lake level was only at 13 percent capacity, that made more room for extra beach to play on. I was neat to see Hummingbirds flying around and Deer roaming around the campground. It was also nice to have flushing toilets and a store nearby to purchase things.

Although our campsite was literally washed out by a flash flood, we had a wonderful time. The camp hosts and Moon Lake Lodge staff went above and beyond to make sure everyone was safe and had a place to sleep that night (about 4 or 5 tent camp families were 'displaced'). In the morning when we went to find our things it appeared as though many objects had already been recovered and were placed out for us to find. My only concern was whether or not the campers that had reserved our flooded-out sites were notified as to the conditions to which they would be arriving. I sincerely hope so as Moon Lake is definitely off the beaten path and gas prices are kind of crazy right now. But anyway, we had a beautiful day out on the lake and love the way the campground is set up. Generators were off by 10 pm, so it was very quiet. Thank you RV'ers! The trail is closed to hiking this year (2021) due to the fire last year.

Although the lake was low this year, the campground was well maintained with especially clean restrooms. The people are friendly and the general store is nice.

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • 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.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee.

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