This is a COE campground. It is beautiful, quiet, big sites, amazing bathrooms with really clean showers. Camphosts are very nice. Each picnic table has a metal platform for your stove so that the heat doesn't melt the table tops. Water is available near the sites. We had an electric site. The tent area was really lush and spacious. The beach is right next to the campground, and there are walking trails close by. This is a definite must for camping.
Lots of trees for nice shade. Bathrooms are very clean and have nice showers too. The only thing we didn’t like was the first 5 sites but right up to the main road and busy and very loud. I wouldn’t stay here again because we like more secluded areas, and the map online of campground needs to be updated
Nice camping, biking, walking and lake area. Quiet, clean. Water and electricity with dump station at campground. Will return!
Great campground with lots of trees and decent sized sites. Showers and bathrooms are nice and clean. Highly recommended.
Didn’t really plan this trip but so glad we went absolutely loved it! The grounds were well kept and the fact they had bathrooms and showers was awesome. They are right next to the trail and the beach. I will be going back for sure!
One of our favorites to camp at. We did pop-out tent and regular tent for the young adults. Clean bathrooms and nice beach nearby. Shady too. Yes, you will hear traffic nearby since the small hwy is right there and they are detouring with it around the construction on the bridge over Red Rock but that did not bother us. We would definitely come back over and over.
The staff was great...the problem was the site EXTREMELY difficult to level. A large slope in the back due to wash out. It took almost 2 hours to get into a level position almost -5 on tje side and -6 for the back! The rest of the park was great. Clean restrooms/showers . Great biking and hiking trails.
Good place to camp, fish, and have a family get-together. The only thing I dislike is that pets on leash are not regulated, and our dinner was eaten by the neighboring camp site's dog.
