Cons- Mosquitoes terrible- used repellent aggressively yet still got many bites.
Very Dusty and dirty. Stayed inside trailer for meals due to dust and mosquitoes. Left a day early.
Pit toilet a long walk from campsite, usually drove to it.
Pros- Campsite large, private and secluded
Scenic drive beautiful
Nice tables and fire pit- shaded in the evening, brought a canopy to have shade during day.
Many scenic atv trails- although hot and dusty
Cleveland lake looks close on map, yet it’s a steep hike to get to. We drove to Huntington reservoir to kayak and loved it. Less mosquitos there.

while there are vault toilets, they are nearly a mile from some of the campsites making it very inconvenient

Would have been nice if the campground areas could have been sprayed for mosquitoes
Campgrounds and restrooms were very clean

- 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.
