There are very low tree branches over many of the sites. One of them ripped the TV antenna off the roof of our 5th wheel.

Stayed in site 26. Plenty of room and nice view of the trees and birds across the little valley. Will plan another trip to kayak on the resevoir.

My wife and I stayed at site #26. It was reasonably flat, but the front right corner was low by 4 inches. Our site, plus #18, 25, 28, 30 seemed pretty level. The others - not so much if you have an RV. Our site was in the sun, which was great for us as we have solar panels. The good part was that if you wanted shade, it was in the area with the picnic table and the fire ring. So you get the best of both worlds. The site had a nice view of the lake. The campsite only had 5 or so other groups, so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Predicting the wind was tricky. Some days it was windy in the morning and calm in the afternoon, and other days it was the opposite. The wind wasn't horrible, but going against the wind in a kayak could be a chore. The hike to the old bridge was about 2 miles round trip with only one hill. My wife HATES hills, and she managed it just fine. The bathrooms were clean, and there was drinking water available. We didn't use the showers. We didn't use the RV dump either as it didn't look level so it would leave stuff in the tank. We dumped at the Pilot right before I-5. We will definitely be back, but probably in the Fall as summer temperatures will be pretty high.

This campsite was overall a nice experience but a bit off-putting as well. Bear the camp host was nice and helpful. When we arrived it was nearly deserted and because of this it felt somewhat creepy. As the night progressed this eeriness intensified. There are not a lot of bugs out in the daylight so that was nice but once the darkness sets in it’s an all out frenzy. It seemed mainly the nonbiting kind of flying bugs. If you wear a headlamp, be prepared to be constantly hit in the face by them. There was also a fire ant hill on our site and I noticed the “water-bug” kind of roaches crawling around here and there. A white cat was roaming the night. There were rat traps by the lake-side fence.
The area is great for night-sky viewing and photography. You can see the milky way here. That said, the nights are brightly lit by the far-off city lights.
I would advise to bring a camping portable potty if you are tent camping. The bathrooms are kept well-stocked with soap and toilet paper but they don’t seem like they’re cleaned. They have showers in the restrooms too. There are water spigots throughout the campground.
Campsites must be reserved online through REC.gov. Easy to do once there since phone reception was great, I have ATT. Campsite #26 was flat but some campsites are sloped.
The campsite road starts/end at a cemetery, really sealing in those creepy vibes. We were glad when we saw others arrive.
To surmise, I am glad this place was available to allow us to rest midway from our home and destination but I’m not sure this is a great place for a long stay unless you have an RV.
If you are pre-reserving, campsites 23, 25, 26, 27, 28, 35 are flat for sure.
