Such a magical spot! Tons of space, a romantic little island, nice trails. Pls make sure to drop the $5 in the self-pay box – totally worth it. Everything is clean and so well-kept. Ppl came to fish and camp too. Can’t wait to be back!

Lake is clean; active fishing and swimming at a small beach. The forest service is doing what it can with the limited budget and manpower. Chuck at the campground is a saint and will help however he can. The showers are better than I expected. The roads could use updating. I prefer campsites with full utilities (read sewer) but all in all it’s a nice campground. Playground isn’t much to entertain the kids so make sure to bring other things to occupy them.

Such a beautiful place. So quiet and peaceful you felt like whispering so as not to disturb the serenity! Campsites are all back in with different sizes. Trails and fishing and even a basketball court but needs cleaning. It has a newer bathhouse in campground but overall the area is a bit rundown but still beautiful. Proposal of $25/night for camping with electric and water.

Beautiful place! We boo docked with our 28 foot fifth wheel, there are one or two primitive sites which could accommodate. This place is a hidden gem, and the camp host is super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend.

This place is only open during the day right now. No bathrooms open, it’s honestly creepy. As a woman alone with her dog.. would not recommend even though the scenery is beautiful. It needs to be taken care of better, trash everywhere.

Camp Host Lynn was very nice and helpful. the day area is pretty run down which will give you a creapy vibe pulling in but the campground is nice. the lake is beautiful and well stocked. swimming, fishing and kayaking. We ended up staying longer then expected because we enjoyed the place. It did say no tent camping because the bathroom is closed due to a plumbing issue but people brought their tents and potties. there is a dump station that's free. great prices, great place.

We thoroughly did not enjoy our visit here, but we are not fishermen, nor did we RV camp. We stopped here thinking it would be a nice spot to have a picnic while driving cross country. The water was gross and mucky and muddy and smelly, with dead fish. There were flies and mosquitos and tons of other bugs all around. There was no shade over the picnic tables, no restrooms open, trash everywhere, and just overall disappointing.

Scarey.. I'm sure in its day it was a beautiful place but now it's abandoned only weird suicidal flies , not even birds or squirrel. Very very creepy place we left early the next day. Very sad.

It was a wonderful time. It's quiet, meet some real nice ppl. A great place go with the family,friends, or just for yourself. Really enjoyed it....
