Quiet
Very quite campground mid week. Had the place to ourselves. Great little hiking trail steps from our site. Easy access to the water for some swimming. Smoke blew in from wildfires. Visibility very low but still beautiful.
Great campground
Beautiful, quiet campground with nice views of Lewiston Lake. The glamping units have the best view so I hope to check those out next time.
Peaceful and quiet
Stayed here this last weekend and wasn’t sure how hot it would be. Luckily the weather was so amazing especially being right next to this beautiful clear clean lake. We stayed at site 14, across from us was a small path that lead you down to the water. We took tubes out and laid in the water and soaked up the sun, it was so nice. It’s especially so calming because there isn’t a million boats on the lake partying and such it’s just quiet and calm water. You do have to do a light hike up the the campsite, cause the sites are sloped. It’s not bad though. The views are incredible as the sun is rising, peaking through the mountains glistening over the lake. There’s a bathroom in front of site 12, but doesn’t have light. And there are flushable toilets near the entry of the campground but also no lights. There isn’t a camp store, so you do need to buy firewood and ice up the street from Lewiston gas station. About 10 minutes passed the campground is pine cove marina where you can rent out boats, and kayaks. They have very reasonable prices! The water down this part of Lewiston lake was definitely a lot colder, like icy cold. But since it was super warm when we went out (96 degrees) the water was very enticing, on a tube! Overall, this campground is so beautiful and peaceful. There is a campground host but they mostly keep to themselves. I liked that the campground only had 17 sites, it made our experience feel more personal.
