4 stars because the dump station was closed. Great campground will definitely be back! Beautiful views, good size sites. It's quite large so you need to drive to the lake. Pretty crazy we had rain in the forecast the entire time and it only drizzled twice!! The lake is flat as can be and great for sup. Internet reception is great! Not that this is important when camping, but it was during the week and I was able to get work done which is nice when your a business owner
Campground with a beautiful view. We were lucky enough to get one of the best camp site there. We had a view of both lake and mountain from our tent. Around 5mins walk to the lake. There’s also kayaks and paddle boats for rent in the lake. But, be careful of the weather and high winds before going to the lake for water activities. It was really windy when we were there and we had to rescue a lady and a body who were struggling to get back to shore on their paddle boats due to high winds. And yes, they had the cleanest restrooms 👍
The lakes are very beautiful, and the mountains surrounding the area are even more so. The bathrooms were pretty clean. The campsites were excellent. This is a really great place to go. I would highly recommend it. The only slight inconvenience was that there was no running water. But apart from that, it was a great experience and I hope to go back again.
Stunning area, spacious campsites, and clean bathrooms. We love this place!
Great location with really quiet campgrounds. No running water was a huge bummer and a pretty big inconvenience but we understand it was just temporary. There wasn’t a great spot for our tent, except in the driveway area, but it was difficult to put our posts into it. Also didn’t have a view of the lake from our campsite, but we could walk five minutes for a beautiful view.
