What Guests Are Saying

Wish Poosh Campground offers a beautiful location with spacious sites and a friendly campground host, making it a pleasant spot for tent camping. Visitors enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and relatively clean porta-potties, despite the absence of running water and some maintenance issues with the vault toilets. While access to the lake can be challenging and some sites are tight, many found their overall experience enjoyable, especially due to the scenic views and minimal bug presence.

Potable water would be awesome. Maybe usable vault toilets instead of port a poties.

Nice campground for small rvs mine is 30 ft and only able to use 4 of the sites. The sites have a good amount of privacy and shade there was no water at the time of our stay and only three porta potties that was very inconvenient. The shining light of our stay was Bill our camp host. Bill is the host all others should strive to be. Bill is friendly knowledgeable and courteous with just the right amount of host and camper, great guy.

Overall the campsite was clean, I was at campsite 005 which is a large site that can easily hold 10 people comfortably. The one issue I had was the restrooms, most did not work at all, and the portable toilets were full to the brim, this was due to poor planning, the portables get pumped on Monday, (My stay was Sunday and Monday), the problem with pumping the portable toilets on Monday is by the time of the weekend the toilet tank is full to start the busy weekend, possibly this is a vendor problem, bottom line; good campsite if you have a trailer with a restroom in it, if not bring one of those portable camping toilets.

The sites were beautiful. The lake was amazing. I have a couple complaints. To begin with, the portable restrooms were disgusting! Full to the brim!!!! Also, the capers across from our site were noisy past 10, playing loud music.

Nice location, close to the reservoir but not right on the water. We stayed on a two family site, which were nice, sunny, and had nice amount of space. This is a smaller campground than someplace lie kachees. It was pretty impactful to not have functional water taps or drop toilets. We were not expecting them to be out of order. There were just port-a-potties (which were clean) and no water available. Host was great but, overall this isn’t the nicest national forest site around.
