We camp here every year in July and love it. It’s beautiful and easy to get to electric lake, gooseberry reservoir, and all the smaller reservoirs surrounding. Bathrooms always seem to be clean enough, and we’ve never had any issues. Some spots have more shade, so we’ve figured out which ones those are and stick to them. We usually have only tent camped, but this year brought our trailer and used the group site, and it was great. We’ll be back next year!
We spent a few nights here with a scout troop, and the group site (site 13) was good for a lot of peole due to the size of the fire pit and the amount of tables. Lots and lots of tables, as well as a serving/food prep table. There weren't a lot of great tent sites that were flat, so most of us were sliding down hill throughout the night. The campsite looked pretty worn down and not very well maintained. There were a lot of plants growing under the tables, which made it difficult to sit down. I'm surprised that other reviews said that there were a lot of trees, because I felt very different. The group site was very sparse, and the single sites weren't much better. If you visit this campsite, make sure to bring a canopy for shade. There just aren't very many trees here. The bathrooms have pit toilets, and they were pretty clean. Plenty of TP and hand sanitizer. The water spigots didn't work, and apparently won't be working for at least another year, which is a huge negative. There are a lot of spigots around, so if they ever get the water turned on, then it will be better. The single sites are relatively close together, but nothing worse than most developed campsites. Boulger Reservoir is within a 10 minute walk of the campsite, and the fishing is excellent there. You can look down onto the reservoir from the group site. Quite a few trails for UTV's and ATV's are around, and a good amount of off-trail hiking is close.
Nice campground. We visited the end of July. The pit toilets were surprisingly clean and well vented. The campsites are well spread out. Even though they were full, we had adequate space. Plenty of firewood from fallen trees. Bugs not bad at all. No water or dumpsters for garbage.
Quiet nights, cool temps and abundant wildlife make this a beautiful summer hang. If you come here, remember that quiet time is 10pm - 6am so please leave your noisy generators at home and invest in solar panels. Plenty of high altitude sun here at 9032 feet of elevation!
Love this place ❤️ beautiful, quite and serine.
