We are avid RV travelers and have spent many nights across this country at various parks and resorts. This place is amazing!! Its of the water a bit, but you can drive to the boat ramp to launch your water vessels in minutes. The lake kinda requires a boat of sorts to enjoy it.

This is a great campground. It's very clean and quiet. Each spot has a fire pit and covered picnic table. However, our fireplace was very close to our trailer, we had to bring the awning all the way in and you could feel the heat on the side of the trailer . The views are stunning. Great boating and fishing. Swimming is doable, there is a nice little cove to swim in, however the water level was pretty low so the stairs stopped about 7 feet from the water. We came down from the North and it's a stunning drive. However, it's STEEP going up the mountain and very STEEP going back down the other side. I cannot stress enough how steep it was. Going home we decided to go back via Elk and it was a much easier drive. There is a small section of road that is gravel but not much. This is a great campground to stay at if you are staying there and not driving back and forth to Orofino or to visit other areas.

The road in is windy and wonderous. The sites are small but most are pull through. Excellent showers. Very reasonably priced. There is a boat launch at the campsite! I stopped in on a road trip for one night. It was about 30 minutes off my route but worthwhile.

We always have a great time on our annual Cast n Blast trip. Nice place to stay. Friendly people. The bathrooms could use a thorough cleaning and a face-lift. They fixed and paved all the roads recently, which is nice.
