Everything we wanted for a chill weekend by the lake. Easy, quick walk to the water from our site. Bathrooms close and flush toilets are clean. Check your site has a working bear box to lock everything up, and we had no bear encounters! Yellowjackets loved us when we opened food, but no stings.

We were in site 27. It is a double site and it is huge! 2 tables, fire pit and BBQ. Shade in the camp site all day. The bathrooms were clean and there was a water spigot outside of each bathroom with potable water. There is no camp host or any other staff on site so there are no fire wood sales there so grab wood before you head to camp. The staff that came through for daily maintenance was awesom...

The staff that came through for daily maintenance was awesome and helped us find the best swimming holes. We did have middle of the night visits from a bear, but as long as you are using the bear box properly they just pass through. We had our dog with us and it was perfect for him as well. Amazing place. Quiet, beautiful, and well maintained.

Lovely campground. Very secluded, great view of the lake. Except tons of poison oak--everywhere in the campsites.

Nice clean bathrooms, strong bear boxes only work if you put your cooler in it! LOL Good flat areas for RV'S or tents. The campground has no control over the yellow jackets, so I recommend you bring bee traps with you. It was beautiful, quiet and rejuvenating. 10/10 will go back. Oh and does a bear poop in the woods? Yes, yes he did.

This was our favorite campground during our multi-state road trip. There were very few people in the campground and we felt like we had the whole lake to ourselves. The scenery was breathtaking.
