"The fire pit in our spot was up next to the shoreline where we didn’t want it so we built one with a hole and rocks. It did get a bit windy but we put the Jeep behind us so that blocked some wind."
"My wife and I camped in site 093 and really enjoyed the scenery of the lake and the park itself. Great place for a weekend getaway or long fishing trip on the reservoir."
"Stopped here on my way through Kansas towards Colorado. The park was nearly empty on a Sunday night, so I got a nice lakefront site with no one else around for $14."
"There are sites for any size rig but the larger ones would be better on the site away from the lake. Most of the sites along the road by the lake are small and not very level."

GuideAwsome little lake, plenty of camping and the fishing is the best.
GuideAwsome fishing lake, wild bison a mile or 2 down the road. Very nice camp spots with electrical hookups up on a hill and primitive down by the water.
GuideVery nice spots, it is a cove off of the main lake nestled way back of the main, very dusty dirt road getting here but very nice spots. I go back every year.
ScoutFantastic get away!! No traffic! Quiet retreat with full hook ups, great bathroom & showers! VERY HELPFUL owner!! I'll be back!!!
ScoutStayed overnight while traveling, but it is one of 12 places on our trip I would like to have stayed another day. Did some hiking before we left. Beautiful sunsets. Only problem was the terrible insects at dusk. Day time was great.
TravelerA 2 night stay on the Willow Loop. I was the only camper on the loop as the fishing folks came and went. Beautiful wooded area with no traffic sounds. Just the peaceful calls from the birds and bullfrogs.
ScoutIt’s a small campground, nearby hiking but no other activities. It is clean, lots of trash cans and restrooms are clean.
GuideThis is a small area, some space for trucks and cars but not many. Restrooms available, big trash can and a non potable water pump.
TravelerThis camp ground has nice tent sites, with a fire pit and electric at each one. The dog run was good size and well kept. Highly recommend!
