The site was well maintained and can get very cold at night in late May and October, below freezing. Also to note the loop does not open until roughly first week of July and depends on the work required on the road when the snow melts.

We went in May and enjoyed seeing only a few people up there and chatting the Burns BLM staff who gave the kids a cool packet of information about the nature, a quite detailed packet.

Overall, if you like to hangout next to a small lake and stay up high, it’s a nice spot. At the beginning of the road there is a larger campsite that is flat with grass, much warmer and better for larger RV’s
