Kay and Bob were great campground hosts. The sites were clean and once again we had a great camping experience. The only downside are the bathrooms. Over the years they have gradually deteriorated. It’s time for a rebuild.

Great quiet campsite with some fun hiking/ biking trails nearby. A little far from the water access if you plan on walking with gear. 26D, close to bathroom and trash bins (not close enough to smell either)

This place was honestly magical, the scenery was amazing and the workers were so nice. But sadly a black bear came and ate sombodys candy on the floor, but luckily a camp ranger came on a golf cart and scared him away before he could cause real harm. I am absolutely coming again.

We had a great time on our 4-night, 5-day camping trip here! I appreciated being able to book our spot online, which guaranteed our group of nine a place to stay. Our site, 26D, was a great choice—it was spacious enough for three tents and three cars with room to spare. A huge plus was the inclusion of two bear boxes, which comfortably fit our two coolers and all our food. The site had a good amount of shade, though we were glad we brought a canopy for extra sun protection on those warm days in the high 80s. The nights cooled down slightly to the 60s, and the elevated, clean fire pit made for some perfect evening fires. We expected it to be colder, but night were very warm. Some things that could be better: While we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, a few things kept me from giving a perfect five-star review. * Lake Access: The biggest issue was the lake access. It's not within walking distance. We had to drive about seven minutes past the boat ramp and then walk another eight minutes down a steep, sandy path to get to the water. The lake itself is beautiful, but the effort to get there was a bit of a drawback. * Restrooms: The restrooms are functional, with flushing toilets, sinks, and mirrors, but they could use a good cleaning. A simple wipe-down would help get rid of the cobwebs and make them feel much more inviting. * Lack of Trails: We were disappointed by the lack of walking trails. The campground is fairly small, and while we were hoping to stretch our legs, there weren't any easy, walkable trails nearby. The few trails that were there seemed too busy to enjoy a peaceful walk.

This was a great campground. We arrived at night and would see the rangers making their way around the camp checking out everything was okay, and later saw a sheriff vehicle pass by too which made us feel much safer. The campsites we stayed at were 35 and 36 and they were a good size, nice and flat. We only set up in 36 though so we used 35 just for the bear box and parking. The bathrooms were pretty clean and well stocked but there's no lights inside. There are no showers so you have to bring your own stuff if you want to. When wer arrived there was some ants but they disappeared by the next day so they didn't bother us. Some toilets are flush but not all. We were close to the restrooms and garbage which saved us a walk. The bears are definitely real, another site left a cooler out and it visited, but if you put all your food and coolers in the bear box you'll be fine. The bear boxes are a good size but if you bring lots of baskets or coolers you might need another box or store it in your car. The lake was beautiful but it is DEEP. It's really only for boats. If you've got kids I'd recommend instead oregon creek day use area, it's around 11 minutes away by car but it's a great place for families and pets. The water was not strong when we went but it's perfect to swim in, it's deeper as you go in but a good swimmer can do well, but we brought our life jackets either way. Lots of shade, tables to eat and there's restrooms.
