Never going back. Was incredibly noisy and people had no respect for other guests. Whether someone chopping wood at midnight or getting woken by screaming kids at 5 AM. Overall a very unpleasant experience. If you want peace, relaxation and people being thoughtful, do not come here.

Very clean campground, not crowded when we were there. Beautiful view of Mt Adams! Quiet. I hope the weather is clear if you go there. Very nice quiet lake.

The campground was nice, clean, and well maintained, and the lake is beautiful and clean. We stayed at the far end of the loop where the sites are large and relatively private. The lake is great for kayaks and fishing. Several nice hikes in the area. On the second day, we got caught in a massive thunderstorm, which is unusual for the beginning of August. No fault of anyone, just a freak act of nature.

The lake was very clear and the view of the mountain was truly awesome. You can see it's reflection upon the lake. The camp sites had good spacing and plenty of tent spots with plenty of trees for hammocks. A majority of the camps had direct access to the lake. We all really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back again.

Beautiful location on the lake with great Mt Adams views. Bring your own drinking water, though.
