Very nice campground right on Lewiston Lake. Very clean, well maintained, beautiful surroundings, lots of space. A number of large pines died over the last few years and were very recently cut down; was not all cleared away yet. Would have given 5 stars otherwise. (As of June 17, 2023)

This place was nice. Was here July 2022 and it was HOT during the day. The water was cold, 47°F at the camp, but warmer as you went downstream, 55°F near Pine Cove Marina. Lots of trout n this area, water was perfect temp. Copper spinner caught them all evening.

There wasn't really an easy way to get to the water without going through someone else's campsite. Once at the water there wasn't a good flat part to set up chairs/umbrella (I was thinking there would be a walk-up beach-like spot going off the pictures, maps, satellite).
Our site was sunny from 7:30am to about 7:00pm, so be careful when choosing a campsite. Luckily we had a canopy.
Once at the water, it was ice cold! Definitely not swimmable for the average person and I've done polar plunges/Pacific Ocean in the winter, etc.
Fishing was okay, we caught an average-sized trout off of the fishing dock in Pine Cove (~5 minutes South, $10/day for parking).
There was a store and gas station that was ~15 minutes South.
Yellow Jackets are no joke! They were really only attracted to any meat that we had out. Thankfully they are pretty aware of humans and will go away if you shoo them gently. Nobody got stung/bit, but we had to eat our bacon in the car.
Mosquitos almost sent me to the ER. We actually had to leave a night early because I had a reaction to a couple of bites; insane swelling/redness the size of my calf, pain, itching, yellow discharge from the bite.
I didn't put any Deet on and that will be the last time I don't.
Pine Cove Marina has rentals. We got a pontoon boat and were able to explore the entire lake for around $100 for 4 hours.
Bathrooms were pristine, and water running from all faucets throughout the property.
Spot: 2/5
Our experience: 2/5
Probably won't be going back here
