Good for fishing

Great spot for fishing but not much else. The sites are okay but not a lot of daytime shade. The trail around the lake is okay but has several large fallen rocks in the way and has a very steep hill to continue around it. Overall, it’s okay.

My favorite Campground and Host

Let me tell you about one of the best hid secrets,  It's this place! It seems to have started out as a fishing spot at the reservoir and expanded into a campground many years ago. The camp host Stevie was amazing.  I have never seen a campground so well-cared-for. I was also there for a week on my own and she always checked in on me personally. Not only was she knowledgable but she really kept a tight ship. We stayed many, many weekends over the summer  and enjoyed wildlife like chipmunks, birds, owls, hawks,  ground squirrels, rabbits, a bobcat, raccoons, sheep, moose, deer and so much more.  There are 2 porcupines that actually became camp mascot's named Bruce and Dave. They meant no harm to anyone but wandered campground to campground giving campers a start!  Totally awesome. And let's not forget the un-official camp host who helped Stevie, her dog, Arizona. <3 Our dogs all got along very well.  We all became great friends. There is hiking there, swimming, fishing and lots of people paddle board.  The Spring water was better drinking water than what I have at home and I miss it and the view of the stars.  There were wild rasberries and people even left painted rocks to commemorate their visits there.  The campground was in process of having new tables and pits put in. Just beautiful and made memories there to last a lifetime. If you guys don't have Stevie back,  I won't know what to do!!

Love this camp

I had space 7 so the camp backs up an over looks the water for a beautiful view. If you want to play in water or just enjoy the view this is great. Did a little hike but no est trails here. Space 7 is level and huge double table and camp tent options. Great attentive host. I saw her take care of out houses numerous times. Water pump right across from 7 and bathroom next to it. Got to enjoy a camp fire.

Great Campsite

Great campsite, very clean and enjoyable. Site tenders were very helpful and nice. The lake is great to relax by and go for a short walk around. Do note though that not all of the campsites have the best grading for tents. Otherwise a great site though.

Great place to fish and camp

Really nice place to get away. They have organized campsites that are about $30 a night with camp rings, water, and grills and there are free camping just a bit further up the road. It's also a great place for hunting big game and upland birds like grouse.
