beautiful small

this is a nice little tiny site. It's off the road a bit and you are right on the lake. When we went the camp host had to loud generators running the whole time, but we asked him to turn it off and he apologized. If you stay at this camp, you're fine, but when we walked down the road towards the 4 x 4 camp, it was filled with mosquitoes.

Scenic Area and Lake

We stayed for two nights in late September. Never saw any camp host, other campers were complaining that toilets had not been serviced. Bear boxes had a lot of natural debris inside. Overall, the place needs a little attention. Rangers we’re working hard to remind people of no campfires, conditions too dangerous currently. That said, the area is beautiful and well worth the visit. Road through the campground was dirt with a few rocks to maneuver around, but no problem with clearance. Picnic tables were in good shape as were the bear boxes. Most sites had a combination shade and sun with tall pines. Best if you are self-contained. Great hiking all around, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing. Great area to relax.
