Customer Reviews
RV/CAMPER BEWARE: if you have anything longer than a 24' you have to cross a creek and you will drag due to the uphill right after the crossing. The road is extremely narrow and the switchbacks are widened out but again the road is narrow and makes pulling a trailer to this reservoir dangerous. THE LAKE: is incredibly beautiful and worth a day drive or tent camping. I wish they would improve the road and creek crossing because we really wanted to get back there. We turned our 32' 5th wheel around after the creek after we dragged our back bumper in and out.
Gorgeous little campground on a beautiful lake. Fish were jumping pretty good on our ride thru. Looks like a great place to set up camp!
Beautiful and peaceful! Fishing, family fun, swimming, camping ... The perfect weekend getaway! Memorial Weekend 2023
