The lake was beautiful and it was fun renting kayaks, lots of nearby sights to see and hiking etc. The site was nice, the bathrooms were clean, and the price was reasonable

Manzanita Lake campground was clean and well maintained. The bathrooms were usable. The campground can get a little full which raises the noise level. There were so many cars alarms going off at all hours of the day. There were many one-night campers who arrived late and left early, and were oblivious to how much noise they were making. Overall it was a fun experience with the lake being so close. There was a shortage of kayaks and paddle boards so we were unable to go out on the lake. But we had fun swimming in the lake.

The campsite was very clean, with adequate distance from nearby site. The restrooms were close by and fairly clean as well, although a little bit smelly. There was a water supply problem on one morning, but it was resolved quickly. The staff were very helpful, and have warnings for the high fire danger and told us about the good practices while making fires at campsites.

This was a wonderful campground! Make sure to hike around the lake close to dusk to see all the animal life. We saw a bald eagle, deer, river otters, and so many beautiful birds. The camp store provided all the necessities we needed to restock on (ice, wood, and gas). Restrooms were kept very clean and trash containers were emptied daily.

Campground host was friendly and helpful. Campground was very clean, and quiet. Had a good stay, wish I had more time in the park! Maybe next time!
