This is a great state park! We really enjoyed the falls & were able to take a couple of hikes. Wonderful views from the lodge & one of Pendleton Falls from the road. The Falls of Elakala is a short walk from the lodge. Lindy Point overlook was a.3M one way for a fabulous view.
There's a nature center by a small lake. You can fish there & they have kayaks to rent. Skiing must be very popular in the winter.
Besides the lodge There's 39 cabins, which looked nice. You have a huge yard area with the ones I saw.
Now for the campground...hmmm. There's 64 campsites, I believe they are all electric. There's water at the bathhouse which is inconvenient. You can't drive close to the bathhouse, There's pedestrian paths.
The handicapped sites are in the first loop by the bathroom.
There's a dump that's in the middle of the first loop. You have to go the wrong way on a one way road to dump. Campsite 40 I would avoid since it's close to the dump.
The bath houses are MUCH cleaner than Pipestem & checked often. There's more of a staff presence here also. More driving through the campground at regular intervals.
The office has some basics.
This is a very oddly laid out campground. I'm including a Pic of the campground map. I made some notations. We were in the 2nd loop on site 27. Since it's been raining for a week it was very muddy. We fit in the site, barely. We have a 16' BTW.
Site 25 next to it first look better, but I noticed something odd. You back in & your door is facing the correct way, but your picnic table & fireplace are on the wrong side! A lot of sites on this loops are like that. 25 would make a lovely tent site.
The pull throughs are too close to backin sites, so if you come in to pull through, you may have to ask your neighbor to move his vehicle. Some places have pull through sites with connecting driveways.
There's a trail that literally goes through someone's site.
Choose your site wisely!
