Customer Reviews
Hi to all tourists coming over are visiting this amazing place. Definitely come over to check out all the trails and check out the lake. Please contact Adam if you want to rent out a cabin for you or your family. If you want to camp out you could come early to find your spot and one thing be careful with wild bears 🐻. Please don't leave trash out bears searching for food .
It's a long and winding road up the mountain to get here, but it's all worth the drive! It's breathtaking beautiful up here. The air up here is wonderful. The campground was clean and instructions easy. There are restrooms around thecampsited that's easy to get to, also fairly clean. There are fire pits and the ground is not hard to stake your tent down into. Beautiful trees, lots of oaks. There is a small Cafe/shop across the street if you need anything. The guy running the store is super friendly and helpful. There are absolutely no lights around the campsite after dark so be sure to bring your own. Saw some squirrels, heard some woodpeckers and other various birds, but didn't see any other animals, although I have heard others seeing bigger animals on the campground. It is bear country, but luckily didn't run into any. It is amazing to look at the stars at night up here! The wind was very high later in the night. It's a great spot for camping!
Too many people. I think it’s a local close camp that feels far away for many people but it’s a bit full and not enjoyable because of the people. Not the cleanest. Condoms used on the street pull overs where people should be able to enjoy look outs. Not a choice for us but please hopefully we joy for any first timers!
Do not go on weekends! There were 0 spots available & had to hike to a non-maintained spot. Loud, inconsiderate campers blasting music past 11pm. This might be for you if you’re a wild college student, but not if you’re looking for a fun, relaxing camping trip. Crystal lake wasn’t even worth seeing. Will not go back.
I went there with my friends at long weekend , very crowded hard to get camp area . A lot of visitors there and we got one spot . It has vault toilet but clean , take your own wet tissue cause sometime napkins are running out . The lake is so beautiful . Campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
