What an amazing campground with super nice camp host Steve. This place is amazing. Clean facility. Lots of hiking directly from camp as well as too many to list within minutes. The views are breath-taking, and serene. I will definitely be back soon!!
Stayed 1 night. What a wonderful peaceful beautiful place. We took a chance we would be able to find a site. Hosts were great. Our site was immaculate. It was secluded, spacious and restrooms were clean. Wonderful hikes start right from campground thru an enchanted forest. Clean creek and mini swim area. Wish we could have stayed longer.
Small campground with vault toilets, potable water, camp host selling firewood, and the gentle sound of a creek nearby. There isn't much privacy so if you're looking for solitude- you won't find it here. But it's not really a big deal if you're just looking to have a fun time car camping.
Beautiful. Clean bathrooms. Amazing views and great trails. Lake is amazing and clear. Will come back for the next family camp.
Excellent camping and hiking! Lakes were so beautiful and campground was very clean and well laid out.
