It rained off and on but we stayed dry and had a great time! Pavilion had sufficient overhang and all sides with a great view. A porta-let was very close with flush toilets a few hundred feet away. Great spot!

The reservation was very easily made for our family reunion spot at North Hartland Dam. Our shelter was well maintained, the ranger was very nice and helpful and the price was very reasonable.

It is a great location. My only problem is having to take your trash with you. I don't mind when I am just visiting the beach for a few hours, but if I'm paying to reserve a spot for a party, trash removal should be included. Otherwise, it is a great location. We used the volleyball net and the horse shoe pits. It rained earlier in the day so the grills were full of water but we managed.

We rented the upper shelter and it held our large family (65ppl) very well. Loved that the bathrooms were on site, clean and had AC. The young kids got to use the playground on site while adults mingled. We did have to share parking spaces with the shelter across the street which left older family members walking further than expected on a hot day. Overall we would book this pavilion again!
