Hirz Bay Campground

We were in site 27. It is a double site and it is huge! 2 tables, fire pit and BBQ. Shade in the camp site all day. The bathrooms were clean and there was a water spigot outside of each bathroom with potable water. There is no camp host or any other staff on site so there are no fire wood sales there so grab wood before you head to camp. The staff that came through for daily maintenance was awesome and helped us find the best swimming holes. We did have middle of the night visits from a bear, but as long as you are using the bear box properly they just pass through. We had our dog with us and it was perfect for him as well. Amazing place. Quiet, beautiful, and well maintained.

Great quiet place, not too far off of I-5. I've stayed here twice, both times in April. The weather was great. Just make sure you use the provided bear lockers. The second time I stayed here, multiple camps left food or garbage out and a small black bear kept us up from about 2am to 4am. Don't be an amateur. All you have to do is read the signs that the campsite puts up.

a fantastic and gorgeous location. really well maintained when it comes to their bathrooms (flushing & sinks) and trash cans… but holy bear. around 4am a black bear (maybe 500lbs?) came through our site and pulled on the bear box and kept it moving to check neighboring sites (which were vacant) only to come back shortly later for a few sniffs. this would’ve been less scary had we been in an RV buuuut tent camping + bear is not the vibe guys. it definitely smelled us and knew exactly where we were & we’re incredibly fortunate but of course we were terrified. i’d definitely come back with different equipment and plenty of mace and really wish there were more signs about the likelihood of bears in this area at this time. there were a handful of signs but so small and easy to get lost amid all the other super valuable information.

Nice clean bathrooms, strong bear boxes only work if you put your cooler in it! LOL Good flat areas for RV'S or tents. The campground has no control over the yellow jackets, so I recommend you bring bee traps with you. It was beautiful, quiet and rejuvenating. 10/10 will go back. Oh and does a bear poop in the woods? Yes, yes he did.

This was our favorite campground during our multi-state road trip. There were very few people in the campground and we felt like we had the whole lake to ourselves. The scenery was breathtaking.
