While the campground is a good distance from the lake, the over all location is perfect. It’s quiet, the sites are well spaced, and camp host Peggy made our experience delightful.

As always, our host Peggy is a gem! Because of heavy rains and inclement weather, she was most helpful in relocating many campers whose campgrounds had been closed. We were able to get a FCFS site that was high and dry and so we’re not impacted by the high water. Although the weather was cold and wet (with hailstorms as well as rain) our stay was as good as could be expected under those conditions. Vault toilets were clean and well maintained. As others have noted, it could be an absolutely perfect location if there were reliable cell service. Perhaps it’s time for the National Park Service to step up and use leftover COVID funds to help provide communication for safety and security through Starlink.
