Beautiful campground for both small trailers or tent camping. Restrooms super clean.

Peaceful and quiet on the tent-only side. Great hiking, clean restrooms and the best camp hosts around! Thanks to Karen and Tony for taking good care of the sites and helping me with my tire! I appreciate you!

Fire danger and smoke forced us to cancel our plans to visit Walton Lake

two years consecutively at Walton Lake primarily to hike Lookout and Round mountains. The northern loop (tents) is quiet and wonderful. Facilities are well kept as well. two recommendations: 1) no generators on north loop - keep it quiet!; 2) north loop needs defined trails from car to 'site' without a facility defined path, campers create their own (more than 1).

Spot 23 is a perfect distance from the lake but has no direct access, you have to go to either side both of which were claimed by the people of the campsite nearest it by use of their paddle boards being on the bank blocking access. This has more to do with entitlement than anything I believe. The lake was nice and quiet, seeing as how it rained half the time there Id expect nothing less. Met Tony (the camp host) on the first night and only saw him once during 4 days. Bathrooms are vault toilets which were almost completely filled but were fairly clean. No lights in them though unlike a previous review mentioned. When it says FCFS on the reservation area of the website that isnt entirely accurate as someone had reserved our spot that was listed as FCFS so unsure how that happened. Id go back since there are very minimal amounts of bugs and very cute ducks.

This lake is such a peaceful place, especially tent camping on the north shore. Ospreys and ducks share the lake with the humans. A bear visited the camp one night (not our campsite), so we slept in the car. Only downside is the single source of drinking water for the entire campground, on the south side of the lake.

Overall, the campground, campsite, and lake were beautiful. The campground is well maintained and the hosts are super friendly.

I'm not sure if I missed it when I booked the site, but I wasn't expecting to hike down to our campsite. Granted it wasn't a long "hike" at all, but it was interesting unpacking in the dark... Lol.

My only complaint is that there were lots of screaming children and barking dogs. I thought it would be quieter at the end of September but I guess we picked the wrong weekend for peace and quiet.

First time visitor so wasnt sure about the various sites. Stayed in our tent in the RV side while the kids and grandkids ended up on the tent side. Only there for 1 night so not a big deal but the generator noise was noticeable for us, none for the kids. Lake was great, having a doe and her fawn walk through our camp was spectacular and splashing in the lake a blast. Yellowjackets were as expected, numerous and hungry for our food in late Aug. Well plan better on our next trip and look forward to bringing our kayaks as well to better enjoy the lake waters.

We left after one night as we were unable to sleep due to the noises. The lake full of frogs started up at 1 AM under the nearly full moon and croaked themselves out by 3am. Then, right on cue, the owls came alive in their nighttime quest for food around the campsites. At daylight (5 am) a massive flock of geese circled several times and then landed on the lake for about an hour. Oh, and then there were the ducks and geese with their fledglings who never stopped for the 24 hours we were there. We met with our neighboring campers and they to said they were also headed home to get some sleep!We are returning to the lake in July because it is such a wonderful place nestled in our beautiful Oregon pine forest. We will not be staying (sleeping) at the lake however as it still belongs to nature and thank goodness they are still in total control at Walton Lake!
