Bears! Three nights in a row. Make sure to stow your food. We were watching for meteors when one walked down the beach across from us and jumped in the water. It was smaller than others I’ve seen, but still cool. Other than that great spot to sail a snark, learn to fish and enjoy life.

Zero stars if I could, because of the host . The host is very aggressive, unhinged, not friendly, liar , he was on drugs or is / was a criminal. His boss needs to do improving in hiring people. After his yelling one of the kids had a nervous breakdown. The host needs to be investigated and fired . I was a witness for neighbors. Host also puts ‘campground full’ sign when it was half empty and there was no stickers on posts . People there were walking with open alcohol bottles , smell of disgusting weed and second hand smoking, noise and music until 1am , dogs are not on the leash , often no toilet papers. Lake is nice

Great camping spot for families. The camping spots are large. Not very many bathrooms, but there’s plenty of trees and shade. It’s just a short walk to the water. Definitely worth getting a reservation.

Wench Creek was a lovely campground. However, my complaint would be that the stench from the toilets was unbearable and unusable. If you are in a campground nearby and the wind direction shifts be warned the smell is very unpleasant. We came in on a Sunday and the toilets were not serviced until Wednesday. Hence the reason for only a three ⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating.

Original plan was to go to Sunset campground, it was full so I was directed here. Came on a Thursday before Memorial day weekend. About half of the spaces are first come first serve. We were able to get a great space 30 meters away from the lake. Bathrooms are a little sketch, they don't flush, vault style; but the host do their best to keep it clean. There are nice beaches and areas to swim and fish from shore. I had no luck with fishing. Camp host were polite, no issues. Overall this is a great campground, especially if you get a space near the reservoir/lake.
