Great campground right by the lake🏔

We stayed here for 2 nights in July. It was a great campground. Within walking distance to the lake, which made it great to go paddle boarding. There is also a store up the road about 1/2 a mile. This is a really beautiful area and a well maintained campground. Bring bug repellent, lots of bugs.

Most amazing views

6 mile hike to the overview of the dam is well worth the whole experience!

Wonderful campground!!!!

We were sent here due to a forest fire close to where we were we had reservations. This is the highest campground around. So it stays nice and cool. So peaceful and beautiful.
