Nice clean campsites shaded by large trees right on a seriously beautiful lake. Hard to beat this one.

Beautiful area and lake. Large sites. Fire restrictions for no wood fires started the day we stayed, but again lot of people disregarded it.

A very clean & well maintained campground. Offers beautiful sites right on the lake. The camp hosts were so kind & very chill. Only negative was the mosquitoes so bring your bug spray!

Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful, the water is so clear it's a nice camp ground and beautiful lake. Don't miss the night view of the sky you will see the whole galaxy. The only down side is beach is made of added gravel so if you walk bare foot and have a pet be careful. Both of my friends dogs had foot injury. It was very windy and although it's a beautiful lake it's peaceful no crowds.

This campground is superb. Crescent lake could be one of the most pristine lakes in the Cascade Range. It’s higher elevation, alpine trees, clear water, and a perfect destination for anyone who wants to escape the hustle of life. Our family and friends love this place. The ability to kayak, paddle board, water ski or just swim and explore the beautiful water is amazing. The camp sites are well equipped, spacious and clean. The bathrooms, potting water stations and dumpsters are plentiful. As for the weather, it’s a mixed bag, but the rest is ideal.

Lots camp sites on first come each day rather then all being reserved. Great boat launch ramp, lots sandy beach. About 10 miles from beautiful waterfalls. All around one best campground.

Holy smokes! What a great campground! We stayed in the yurts for $40/night, it slept 6 and had a table and a wood stove for cold nights. Outside the yurt was enough personal space and had a fire pit, and picnic table. Crescent lake was also lovely, it was a little shocking to get into at first but once submerged it quickly became a comfortable water temperature, and the water was incredibly clear! My family had so much fun snorkeling the waters and looking at the reeds, rocks and sun rays through the water. The beach was nice to lay on, but there wasn’t a lot of shaded areas so if you go in the summer an umbrella is a must. We played volleyball on the beach and the sand is primarily made from pumice stones and was very rough on bare feet, so do not forget water shoes! My family had so much fun, we will be returning next summer! ❤️

We stayed a yurt for three nights. When we arrived someone else was in the spot we reserved over a month in advance, so we just picked another one that was empty. Turns out the manager forgot to put up our reservation tag... We did not see the camp host the entire time we were there. The yurts are nice and have enough room to sleep five people. There is a tiny wood stove in each yurt for warmth, however the wood provided was way too big to fit in such a tiny stove. Bring a sharp axe!! The stove also had a significant amount of ash in it which impeded its ability to keep us warm. Dogs are allowed in the camp sites but not in the yurts. Dogs are also not allowed on the beach for some reason? Pretty silly to bring your dog camping but not be able to take it down to the water. Overall a nice place but I'm not sure I'd stay there again unless management improves.
