We've stayed at a few different camp grounds at Turquoise Lake, and this one is one of my favorites. It's not directly on the lake, so it's a bit warmer and less windy than spots on the lake. The lake is only a short hike away...maybe 5 minutes. The sites were well spaced and large. The host was very nice, but my husband thought she was a bit intense. Firewood was $8 a bundle, which seems odd since they are logging in the area and there is really plenty of wood around. Vaults were well cleaned. There was a bog nearby that my girls thought was cool. We could hear the frogs at night. Something growled in the dark on a 3am trek to the vaults. Not sure if it was a dog, a snore, or...? A bird flew into our car and got stuck. This is at a high elevation and nights are chilly, even in July. Drink plenty of water and wear your sunscreen! Bring bug spray!!!
