I reserved this site for a celebration of life for my mom. The site was not reserved for us, garbage cans were not available as promised. There was one in the bathroom and it was stuffed full. The bathroom had not been cleaned in quite a while. I expected a little more for having to pay $50 to use for a few hours.

From Afton, Wyoming, take Highway 89 south approximately 7 miles to Smoot and watch for signs for the Cottonwood Lake Campground.
The forest boundary is about a mile up the access road, and the campground is 6 miles beyond that. Continue past the west first loop of the campground, then go right at the 'Y' intersection toward lake. The group picnic area is on the left side of the road.
