We managed to get our 40 foot class A RV into site number 1. The site was decent. But the road to the campground is atrocious. I should not have attempted it even though I was successful. It is very narrow and potholes are unavoidable. Like driving through an earthquake. The drive popped out our windshield. Branches scratched the side of the coach in many places. It was not a wise stop for us. The scenery and the river we were beside were stunning. But the drive in and out was horrible. If they would just grate the 2.8 miles of gravel road three or four times a year it would make a huge difference.

Awesome clean campground. Camp host clearly explained camp rules on day one. We did our best to follow and had a wonderful time. We took our bikes and rode them around the campground and the lake. So fun.

Didn't know what to expect because there were no real photos, just a generic, unflattering pic of a picnic table in full sun. We were pleasantly surprised to find this is a densely treed area and right next to a lake (1-3 minute walk for most sites). We sat by the lake in the evening to watch the fish jump--a lot--and were blessed with a cow moose that came down to the shore to drink and swim a little, about 100 ft. away from us! Most sites are spacious, shaded (choice of morning or afternoon shade depending on how you're oriented in the loop) with plenty of room for our 35' pull trailer. We got rain that night, so were very pleased that the sites are gravel that drains quickly (road was muddy, tho). We'll definitely come back to stay longer. Spotless restrooms. Great campground.
