One of the campground's main attractions is its proximity to Sullivan Lake, which boasts crystal clear and cool, yet comfortable, water perfect for swimming.

This is a beautiful, clean and clear lake with great camping spaces. A smaller campground, with large sites, separated by plenty of trees and undergrowth. The beach is fabulous. No hookups, but water is nearby. Makes for a more authentic camping experience plus the beach is wonderful. Our site was a little difficult to maneuver into as it was laid out a little wonky for backing a trailer in, but we made it! Sites can hold multiple tents as well.

We snagged a first come site on a Monday in July, it was the only one available, and I'm not surprised. This campground is clean and incredibly close to the water, which is crystal clear and cool but not cold. Ideal for swimming. Bears are a concern here so make use of the bear proof food storage bins and definitely don't keep any food in your tents. There is also an active air strip right next door which can be loud but not very frequent (we had one airplane and a helicopter during two days). Highly recommend this area if you have a family, the kids will love it!

Stopped by from Metaline Falls Bigfoot Festival for a quick dip/ shower. Seems to be a nice lake for fishing and definitely swimming. There was also a landing and take off strip for Cessna aircraft's. Got to see 'em having some fun doing his rounds around the lake. Please adventure this location and let people know about the beauty it holds. I got good vibes while out there. Happy adventures!

Stopped by for a day pass on opening weekend, Memorial Day, and fell absolutely in love with the place! We had the pleasure of meeting the new campground host, Diana, and her assistant/mascot Marvin(see picture for his wonderful face) and could not be happier. They were some of the most welcoming camp hosts we've had the pleasure of meeting and can't wait to see them again. Absolutely welcoming, so sweet, and genuinely happy to be there. I wish them nothing but the best and hope they can continue to host for years to come. The campground itself was absolutely stunning, breathtaking and clean as could be. We will be making this place a regular stop due to its peaceful nature, wonderful vibes and views. There were deer, fish, and birds a plenty. This is honestly the dream campground. Great spots, picnic tables and a lovely little beach to enjoy on warm days. Don't hesitate and come enjoy this place for yourself, you won't regret it, I guarantee that!
