The campground is lovely. The only problem were the dogs. Dogs barking a lot. I go camping for peace and quiet, there was little. I would like to see the parks not allowing dogs as in the past.

This is a beautiful campground nestled high atop mountains, away from the hustle bustle. It's a slice of heaven perfect for a few days of rest and rejuvenation. The campground is well maintained and the bathrooms were always clean and well stocked with paper towels and toilet paper. Park attendants Shawn and Brittani are wonderful, friendly and helpful. They made me feel very welcomed from the moment I arrived until the moment I left. Ranger Francesca is a wealth of knowledge about the history of the reservoir, dam, and park. The camp hosts at this park really do great job keeping up with everything. Site 32 is best for a small pull behind trailer or teardrop as it's unlevel except for the very end of the driveway. It' across from a restroom and a dumpster. Site 19 is shady, with a beautiful back yard and the driveway is mostly level, but it's under a walnut tree and the walnuts are very loud when they fall on the camper. Site 14 is a nice site, a mostly level driveway, but next to a dumpster. NOTE: DO NOT GO UP THE MOUNTAIN THROUGH MCCOOL. TOO STEEP, NARROW AND WINDING ROAD. TAKE HWY. 50 INSTEAD.
