Great USFS campsite next to Bryce. Very comfortable and well maintained. There seemed to have been a fluke causing water issues, but the drinking water spigots were still functioning, and I figure altogether I cannot complain.

We loved this campground. There was enough space. The bathrooms were close and clean. The camp host was helpful. The lake and hiking trails were close by. We kayaked and fished at the lake.

Great campground set in the trees. Clean bathrooms, respectful neighbors. Lots of other families around. Having the reservoir nearby was a treat, and the proximity to Bryce Canyon NP is even better.

We love this campsite and have come to visit with our family multiple times. It’s quiet and tucked back in the trees. We bring paddle boards and water toys to play in the reservoir and it’s a short drive over to Bryce Canyon. Excellent camp host!

The campground is well kept and clean. It was quiet at night so we could sleep good. The camp host was friendly and easy to work with. There were a few spots at the edge of the campground where fire damage was done.

My family really enjoyed our stay at this campground. During our stay we spent time kayaking on the lake, visiting Bryce Canyon, and enjoying the shade at the campsite.

It is a really quiet place. They have a reservoir at the bottom of the campsite where kids can play in the water.

However, it is not good for fishing; the water is too shallow and there is a lot of water grass.

Very nice campground. Just had a little confusion going on with a bunch of sites having a reserved sign up but no dates written on them. Camp host wasn't around when we got there. No phone service in the camp ground so we had to travel to get enough service to check camp site availability online so we knew what was available. Other than that the camp host was cool and kept up with keeping the restrooms clean and stocked up

The location was perfect but our reserved spot was taken by someone else. We managed to find the empty spot right next to it so we didn’t complain. A large group of people started making all kinds of noise yelling and talking on walkie-talkies at midnight trying to park their trailer right next to us. If they didn’t yell and have their brights on our tent, it wouldn't have been an issue. Other group decided to start poking around our campsite for firewood even though it was stage 2 fire alert. Another camper at the day use only spot took our reserved receipt and put it on their post…weird people but nice location.
