Nice Campground, Busy

For off season campers, if you’re going on a weekend, we highly recommend making a reservation. We reserved a spot one day ahead of time and it was only one of two left with hookups. When we arrived, the other spot was also taken. It’s an $8 fee to reserve online but it turned out to be worth it. We were there on a holiday weekend so keep that in mind. There is campfire wood available but no camp hosts during the off season so if you do not bring your own wood (like us), you’ll need to flag down a ranger who will grab some for you. They come by fairly regularly so it’s easy to do. The sites have fire rings and picnic tables and at least the one we were at (63) was paved and level. There wasn’t a ton of privacy between sites but it wasn’t a parking lot. $30/night for partial hookups.

The trails along the lake are alright. There isn’t a lot of distance of trail but the views of the lake are beautiful. There is another trailhead on the other side of the highway, which we did not explore, but I suspect it would be more of the same.

There was solid cell service (Verizon) the whole time. Overall, good place if you’re fine with lots of people.
