Love this campground

Worth the drive! Heard the drive is crazy but I didn’t think bad just slow going. Great spots reservable at lower campground with fcfs sites and open space camping at upper. So great.

Camp on a spectacular lake with mountain views

Beautiful drive to the camp grounds and plenty of spots. Small sites with not much privacy, but if you luck out there are some corner sites with privacy. Many sites are on the water and all of them have ramadas
