This was our first time camping at Bolar Mountain Recreation Area. Decided to try something new after camping every summer at Douthat State Park. We were very happy with everything about our stay at Bolar Mountain. Our camp site was clean and provided plenty of space for our family. We liked the nice tree and vegetation cover around our campsite, which made it very private and shaded from the summer sun. Maintenance on the lake made the water level a bit lower than normal (we were told), so our lakeside campsite was a bit further from the lake than usual, but this was not a major issue. We enjoyed fishing and kayaking on the lake. The bathrooms were well-maintained and clean. No camp host during our stay, and no firewood available for purchase (as we were led to believe there would be). We understand that staffing is still an issue, so hope that services will improve when we visit next year. We were able to scavenge for firewood near our campsite, so the firewood availability issue was not a problem. We will most certainly camp at Bolar Mountain again.

Nice time, too many loud jet skis and power boats during the day to enjoy the Lakehurst come evening it was very nice. Strong cell at overlook at the top of Bolar loop trail.
