Total Gem!

Secluded, stunning, and fun for all ages! The manager, Amanda, along with the other staff were all so welcoming and easy going. I camped here 3 nights and wish I had stayed all week long. The vault toilets were the cleanest I’ve ever seen. Tent sites were well kept and the sunset rainbows by the river followed by dark skies were indescribable. Monarch lake up the road was the cherry on top, being able to use their boards to float on an alpine lake and catch fish for dinner on the fire. There is a spring water spout on site, playground, showers, and even WiFi in the lodge to get work done while kids play games. I can go on… hands down best place to stay for a family who wants to experience being off the beaten path and still have access to comfortable amenities.
