We liked our campsites and the campground. The sites seemed spacious, fitting at least 2 tents. The host, Thom, was informative and friendly. The lake is a 20 min walk/hike away via trail, or a less than 5 min drive. There is a general store 5 min away.

A gem. There is a trail that leads down near the lake, it is a little long about a mile. The campground was very clean when we were there, it felt like a little slice of heaven. I came during the week and there was almost nobody there, which made for a very peaceful stay, we couldn’t have been happier. My dog and I had the best time adventuring all around here. We will definitely be returning! Plenty of trails nearby for a few hikes. Super close to the lake. The host was friendly and even came to check on us a few days into our stay. Bathrooms were clean and stocked. Beware if you come from low elevation, you need to let your body acclimate to the environment!
