Camp Host(s) were top notch.Hook ups functioned as desired.Note, while a spectacular site when the dam gates are open the spray mist from discharge chutes leaves a film on the RV/car that is very difficult to remove.No dumpsite on the west loop, got to travel across the dam to the east loop.

Great campground! Large sites, trees, walking paths, friendly and informative staff. Bathhouse is very nice but needs more hooks and a bench in showers. Quirky layout - you need to go outside to go from toilet area to shower area. It is not only inconvenient, but it can also cause an issue if the facilities are needed before/after your shower. You must redress, go outside and cross over to the restroom area. Not a great layout. Could be changed by creating a hallway between; one can only hope! We definitely would and will stay here again. Other than the bathhouse it was fantastic! One night; 22' van.

Campsite was nice. Good shade. Everything worked. Close to the damn. Area was quiet. Had a horseshoe pit. Bring yard games because they have a park to play in across the campsite. Very nice.

It was just an overnight stay for us but we were pleasantly surprised at all the campground had to offer. It was a beautiful setting, quiet and peaceful.

The dam was quite a site and very interesting. The camping areas at the bottom of the dam were nice & well maintained. There were a lot of fisherman coming and going but not to the point of it being too much of a bother. We stayed at site #1 which was the closest to the dam and was facing it. However, this particular site receives runoff from the hill next to it so there was some washed out sections making for an uneven stay. The other sites seemed to be fine and mostly level. Each site appeared to have their own picnic table & fire pit and there was a camp host at this location. The dump station was not operational so we had to drive approximately 1.5 miles to the other campsite on the upstream side of the dam. That dump station was well maintained & clean. All in all, it was a pleasant stay and everyone was friendly and quiet throughout the night. I recommend this camp and would stay again.
