Warning

General

We are unable to provide water at Moon Lake Campground, Moon Lake Group Site and the Moon Lake Guard Station for the 2026 season. Due to debris flow damage during the summer of 2023, we are installing a new water system to replace the infrastructure that was damaged. This project is currently underway, but we do not expect it to be completed this season. We apologize for any inconvenience and please reach out if you have any questions.

What Guests Are Saying

Moon Lake Campground is praised for its beautiful scenery, spacious sites, and friendly staff, making it a great spot for outdoor activities and relaxation. However, it has faced ongoing issues with its water supply, resulting in no running water and reliance on porta potties, which some found to be poorly maintained. Visitors recommend checking for events at nearby facilities to avoid noise disturbances and suggest that improvements are needed for the campground to reach its full potential.

This is such a beautiful place, I will be going back. The CampSite host is really nice also and they go out of their way to help you out. One complaint is the guests. It says everywhere to have a leash on your dog. When they are constantly bombarding my kids, I will protect them. Please control your dogs so we don't lose the ability to bring them here.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • 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. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Site capacity

  • Tents must be placed only on designated tent pads; no extra tents are allowed.
  • Availability of first-come sites is not guaranteed despite website availability indications.
  • Occupying a reservable site without a current reservation is prohibited.

  • Shooting any guns or projectiles is prohibited in the campground.
  • All generators must be included in the leashing requirement for dogs.
  • Non-compliance with campground rules may lead to fines or removal.

Pets
