Fall camping

This campground is beautiful with pine trees , lava rock, boulders and the lake just a short walk down the bike path. There are pit toilets throughout with garbage bins and water spigots .The only problem in September is they are logging to thin the trees for fire safety, so not as quiet during the week days
