I was very disappointed with this campground. The site itself was spacious and should have felt like a nice spot, but the campground was not kept and it was so noisy. For the fee we paid, I would've liked a picnic table and firepit that had been cleaned at all over the summer, and reasonable toilets to use. The toilets were unbelievably dirty, with pee dripping down the outside of the toilet, literally not a clean spot in there, and an overflowing garbage. It looked like they hadn't been taken care of in months. On top of all this, the campground was so noisy with groups all day, until well past 11pm.

If this were blm land, I'd be disappointed and probably not return, but for the fee we had to pay, the campground was pretty unacceptable. We won't be back, which is a shame because we've enjoyed this campground in years past.

Camp host is crazy over the top. No leniency at all for mistakes made by kids. Kicked us out of the camp 5 hours after we set up at 9:30 at night. It's a beautiful campground, too bad the host can turn such beauty to such an ugly experience.

The campground was beautiful, for the 5 hours we were there until the host kicked us out. Some of the kids in our group made a mistake by pushing over a dead tree. I understand this is a big no no, but the kids thought there was no harm because the tree was long dead. The host freaked out, no warning, and made us pack up and leave at 9:30 at night. At least let us stay the night then leave, rather than leaving a group of 9 kids and 2 adults looking for a backup spot at 11 PM on a holiday weekend.

Such a beautiful camp ground. Sites are spaced well, close to Bear Lake, and the host, Terry, is the best!! The restrooms are extreamly clean, he watches to make sure everyone can enjoy themselves ... his efforts make this choice to do again and again.

Beautiful campground and great host. The road was tricky getting into. One way roads are not one way, be careful.

As far as the campground went it was great! but your campground host was the rudest ever! He yelled at us for not coming to pay him. It was chaotic and we were having a family reunion and he could have just come over and asked us nicely but he was extremely rude and yelled at us. We will won't ever come back until you get a new camp host!

The campground (including the restrooms) were always clean. Campground Host was excellent - friendly, responsive to our concerns, and always concerned that we had the best possible experience. My only complaint is that the roads within the campground are in terrible shape. Major repairs and maintenance are long past due.

Very clean bathrooms, nice camping spots with trees, and nice host. Did have some noisy campers which was frustrating but the host did his best to quiet them down.

It is a great campground but #15 has a huge drop off when you get out of the trailer, the ground has sunk very far and is almost impossible to climb up into your trailer unless you bring a big step to step up to your trailer steps. We have mentioned it before but nothing has been done to fix it. Also the trees need to be trimmed up high as you back in they scrape into the trailer and scratch the top of the trailer. I wish they would fix these problems.
