ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT HERE.. very clean camp sites hidden away in the mountains. All right on or next to the lake side. The overseeing staff is very friendly. My kids and I just stayed here for 2 nights and it was everything you would expect and more. It is a little pricey but worth it. And there is no cell service but that's the point of camping. Will be going back every chance we get!!..
Campsite was good the host we met on the first night was nice, the lake and views were gorgeous. The stars at night were amazing. And there was a lot of critters to see at night too including coming across some deer! The only downside were the restrooms in my opinion. Basically glorified porta potties. There was one that that seemed to be less frequented than others and did not smell, but the one closest to the lake smelled pretty bad. You just need to know where to go.
Lake is beautiful, camp sites are very nice and kept clean . Fire pits , large picnic table and bear box . We stayed at site #17 , close to the lake . Quite time 10pm-8am ( no generators , no partien ) . 30$ a night , 2$ a day for dogs . Cons . The vault toilets were the worst thing I have ever come across camping , smelled terrible and had bugs , flies and worms in and on the vault and seat . Very bad . The camp host we're nice but told us we had to take our personal porta potty tent down and use the provided vault toilets . Yah no . We liked it but not the bathrooms or the ridiculous porta potty tent issue . The host should have been more understanding instead of being pushy .
Very nice campground, camp hosts Jerry and Tracy were awesome, nice sized sites and good access to a beautiful lake. Butts Lake is very pretty, but is consistently windy late morning so if you're here to kayak get out there early.
This place is always so nice and clean. We did not stay here but we stay for awhile. The camp host, is the nicest man in the whole. We've seen the lake drop low than usual specially this year. If you are thinking of camping this year or in the next few months, check this place.
