Campground is right on the edge of the Goat Rocks wilderness and the lake is big - lots of people kayaking and fishing. A couple of trails start right from the campground. One pit toilet was full, but the others were clean and stocked with TP through our stay. Most of the sites small, not much room for big trailers, but the sites were spaced well and fairly private from one another.

Lovely setting, gorgeous lakefront site, but really odd interactions with neighbors and camp host. We had site 38 and loved the views of the lake and lakefront spot to set up. We stayed three nights, and the first evening was a dream despite the cool weather. Friday on midday we were relaxing next to our site when the madness began - groups of people carrying boats and tents right through our site without even trying to social distance. Site 37, a first come site, ended up with nearly 20 people and 6 tents - they even put a tent in OUR site (after very confusingly asking us if it was OK - we did not know that's what they meant until it was too late). These folks also tried to park their boat literally on top of our beach blanket while we were at our picnic table eating a snack. Seems like rules of site limits (people and cars) were not being followed. Very little social distancing by most people. Also saw very few mask wearers (the neighbors were covid-deniers...eek). Parking was a nightmare. Very odd use of space. Very odd experience. I'd love to go back but only if rules are being followed and I'd know I'm not next to an impromptu family reunion during a pandemic.

This was such a peaceful, relaxing campground. The sites are large and spread out- so you aren’t too close to your neighbors. The lake is beautiful and there are walks and hikes nearby. It was very clean and the host was friendly and helpful. The long drive up the mountain on a gravel road is worth it to be completely unplugged in a beautiful part of Washington state.

This is a very beautiful area but know that there is 20 miles of hideous forest road. It takes about an hour to get to the campsite. Individual sites are fairly large. We were backed up to the wilderness with no site on one side so we only saw the people across the road from time to time. All sites are shaded, so if you are relying on solar power..... you're not going to get it. The insects are something to work with, having a fire going at all times for the smoke and lots of bug spray. The only water available was by the host, all others did not work.
