Nice lakeside but small n tight

Small campground, 17 total sites, sites $12/,$6.50 senior. About 2/3 of the the sites can be reserved, rest are FF. No camp host onsite. Sites are tucked into dense willow-aspen shrubs and only a few have paths direct to the lake, but there are two overflow parking spots that allow access to the beaches on lake. Bugs are likely bad at times. Roads into this CG are narrow and sketchy for large rvs or travel trailers. Cell service is none. A private lodge is farther down the access Rd toward the hiking TH. Road to the TH is narrow, rocky and limited parking, very limited turnaround for trailers

Dry campsite with small beach

We stayed at this small campground for a couple days. Only about 10 spots and nice access to a beach area.

The campsite has a vault toilet but no water. $7 per night and no reservations

There was a rowdy trashy element at the campsite during our visit. This would be a great campsite if the host enforced rules about the number of vehicles / campers / quiet hours.

Pretty Good

It’s a decent place, you are definitely in the trees! Super close to the lake.

Love this place!

This is an absolutely beautiful place to camp. Sites are reservable and it does fill up. They have both pull through and back in sites. Sites have picnic tables and fire rings. All sites are close enough to walk to the lake. You will need your bug spray. There is a boat dock just up the road from the campground. The lodge has cabins and a bar/restaurant but you can’t count on it being open. The campground provides toilets and garbage. It is just close enough to town that it isn’t a big deal to run and get what you need.
