REALLY ENJOY THIS SPOT BUT THE SITES ARE VERY SMALL

NO PRIVACY IF THE SITE IS FULL. THERE IS A FRIENDLY DEER THAT CAME OVER TO ENJOY THE SALT AND VINEGAR CHIPS MY HUSBAND WAS EATING HAHA. A NICE AREA TO PITCH A TENT IF U DONT WANT TO LEAVE THE LAKE FOR A COUPLE DAYS. NOT A PLACE TO ENJOY THE QUIET AND SOLITUDE

Large campground but most sites are small

Chinamen's Campground has 30+ sites however most of the sites are small and many tent campers may have a hard time finding a spot to pitch a tent in many of the sites. Good sites fill up fast. Campground has a boat launch area. An ADA spot and Vault toilet is available.
