This place used to be awesome and the place our family visited every summer for years! Now we can't even get the office to respond when we need to alter our reservation even though we are months out from when we were booked. So beware. We are still hoping for a positive outcome and I will update the review if that happens. Update: The office did respond and we received our refund. We appreciated their response.

Such a shame as the view, of the Columbia River, from this property is stunning. I booked one of their tiny houses for a 2-night stay and didn't even stay for one. No soap, shampoo, washclothes and the sheets did not appear to have been washed. The smell, in the cabin, suggests that no one had been in there (and trash had been left) for quite some time. It is such a great location, and it wouldn't take much to turn it around, but the owner / caretaker just doesn't care.

The contract says no refund and that's understandable, but there was a horrible fire the day we arrived and you couldn't even breath from the smoke. We asked for a refund but they approved partial refund only and we never received it. Many people in campers were leaving early, but you can't even reach the owners because they have the store empty. The grass is completely dry and it's no longer the beautiful green camp site it used to be.

Something is off, the trash is overflowing and stinking up the campground especially the grassy area for tents. The office is closed and ringing the doorbell doesn't mean anyone will answer even though they are upstairs in the apartment. Looks like the grounds are not being watered, very crispy grass Just not the same here as last year. Reservation doesn't mean anything it's pick a spot maybe you won't have to move, maybe you will.

We came to stay here for 3 days. We found our time here very relaxing. We had a wonderful spot with a great view of the lake and really everything. Everyone at the park was very welcoming and friendly. The lake is just a short drive down the hill and if you want to rent a boat down at the marina, there’s boat rentals available too! I was impressed by the staff in the store, very nice and friendly! The girl in the store makes great coffee too! We enjoyed our time here and are making plans to come back next summer.
