Really get away !
This campground is fantastic! It’s really away from it all! We were very happy with our campsite, #17. We didn’t really have anyone next us on either side. There was plenty of space , trees & privacy from the next neighbor. The site was large , very very clean & neat & had the cleanest fire pit we’ve seen in a long time! We had our camper at the site , it’s about 25ft & there was more than enough room . There was even a little nook that a tent could’ve easily set up camp too! We stayed over the 4th of July weekend & it wasn’t rowdy at all. There’s a beach within the campground that was also very neat & clean . People going back & forth to the beach was about the only foot traffic we encountered near our site but it was totally manageable & we had plenty of privacy. We walked around the grounds & many of the sites have unique & roomy layouts. This is one of the only campgrounds we’ve been to lately that has a lot of sites we would’ve been content staying in. And we’re very picky about privacy. The hosts are also incredibly nice!! You can tell they truly have a vested interest in the grounds & actually enjoy what they do! They’re around if you need anything without being intrusive. The campground is about 8 miles outside of the cute little town of Ely. There’s now much else supply wise except venturing into Ely. Plenty of souvenirs for the tourist in you & a few spots for groceries. But be warned, it gets a little spendy so come prepared! There are also many other state parks & lakes nearby to explore if you’re looking for a day trip. Mosquitos at our site were definitely hanging out but oddly they left us alone.
