WOW! Gorgeous park. We did not camp here, just spent the day. Whether you are driving through, biking or walking you can't get a better location. Great walking trails, many right along the lake. Beautiful marsh area you can walk around. Don't miss a stop at Osprey point for a stunning view of Payette Lake. There are 4 camp ground loops.

We’ve been camping at Ponderosa for many years (with and without dogs and/or kids); it’s a popular and safe spot for solo campers, families, friends and couples. From the most expert or beginner camper. There’s full and partial hookup RV sites at the Park which works really well whether you’re a tent camper or have a tent trailer, RV, travel trailer, or motor coach. There’s pull through and back in spots available in all of the loops but you have to book early as this is a spot that fills up quickly. The Park is well maintained with incredible staff available to help should you need it. Some of the spots are a little tricky to get into so take a good look online before you reserve. There’s a dump station on site and lake views within walking distance from the campsites. In the park you’ll have places to boat, hike, take your side by side out, or bike ride with a few small beaches too. There’s a covered picnic area and the park is minutes away from downtown McCall where you’ll find shopping, restaurants, beer, coffee, grocery stores, a hospital, bike repair, tire store and farmers markets. Visitors like mule deer are sure to cross your site in the morning and evenings as you hear the breeze through the pines and crows caw. It’s a gem of a park in our Gem State.

On-line booking was straightforward. Campsite infrastructure was great. Public areas were clean. Camp host was attentive. Access to Payette Lake and the Peninsula Trail was excellent. They even sent a 'Thank you' email after our visit!

The state park is beautiful. There are several trails you can do. The most popular is the bike trail. The beach by the visitor center is excellent. There are cabins you can rent. The staff at the park is very friendly. The campground sites are clean and spacious.
