"We stayed on site 172. We could not be happier with our choice. The campsite was very spacious, quiet and one of the best views! The sites that are waterfront are spread out really well."

Loved it, hiking to waterfalls, viewing the rim, spacious sites, quiet, small playground. All in all a very restful stay
A great find to hang your hat for the evening. New owners look like they are doing amazing up grades. Our site 57 didn’t have a picnic table or fire ring but I’m sure they are working on it. Fairly quite and we would for sure come back and give it a 5 star when their done on the remodel.
Enjoyable place to stay, quiet nights. Very chill atmosphere. Would recommend.
I was worried that I would arrive and find all the campsites occupied. This was not the case. When I got there around 5:30 there was only one other site taken. I didn’t see them until the next morning. By morning, there were two other sites occupied.
Hard to find, really busy but most of them were hikers let left at nightfall.
Loved the park. Waterfalls, hiking, nice campground, overall very nice stay. Turns were a little tight but made it okay. Dump station looks like it was designed by someone who’s never dumped an RV. The sewer spot was elevated (above my dump connection!), and required stupid tactics (fill hose, shut valve, dump hose contents, open valve, fill hose………).
I was working near here and it was convenient place. So I drove through and it was very clean campsites are pretty good size . Fire pits, tables, etc. Bath house is clean and well maintained. I stayed 5 nights at site 16 by the bathrooms and my site had water electric. But all sites do. But mine had internet access being by the bathroom. Nice place. Lake beautiful also has boat access beach too swim at fishing deck. Highly recommended
Excellent campground! We were on the west rim. Bathrooms nearby and very clean! Sites were spaced enough you don’t feel like you’re on top of your neighbors. Lots of trees. Playground for kids was great and there’s tons of trails of varying difficulties. There’s a grill at each site so bring charcoal! Really enjoyed our weekend stay and would definitely go back!
Hopefully they open it up soon but we drove about an hour to get here just for it to be closed. The whole road seems to be closed for the time being for road work. I hope this helps someone!.
The 5-8 miles up to this area do seem a little sketchy but we were hoping the actually site would be nice and hopefully it will be after the work they are doing right now.
