Host is very friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are always clean and well stocked. Sites well maintained. Fairly quiet campground at the time.

Campground host was very helpful. Sites well maintained. Bathrooms always clean and well supplied. Drinking water was clean with no bad taste or color.
Only concern was that the map of the campground showed a hiking trail that appeared to be overgrown and not maintained. This is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.
Definitely coming back!

We were told this was RV friendly, however the site we reserved was too narrow and short to fit us, not as long as was advertised. We found another longer one, but the road was far to narrow to back our fifth wheel into a spot.
Because the road was so narrow we also had to keep moving to allow others to pass….every 5 minutes another vehicle needed to get by, which allowed zero time to try and back in. People were extremely rude about it as well, even swearing in front of my kids.
The trees were also not cut up high enough to not damage the sides and roof of the RV.
Another major concern was that the FS roads to the campground were heavy with washboarding which made the ride there really awful. It was horrible for the RV as well, not ideal in the least.
We ended up leaving this campground as it really wasn't a site that could accommodate our fifth wheel.
I would recommend making sure people know about the road conditions, I would trim the trees up higher, and would give exact photos of the entrance and exact measurements of both the road and drive so people can know not to come if they won’t fit.
We have a disabled child and have to camp in an RV due to his special needs. We were not made to feel welcome to stay there at all.
Even though the camp host was super helpful, the other campers made us feel we did not belong.
I was also made aware of multiple campers who were up there specifically to bait bear, that did not make us feel comfortable or happy in the least. I do not feel those sorts of activities should be allowed near the developed campgrounds. That puts everyone at risk and goes against the idea that you should not have food around to draw in bears, so that is confusing.

All in all, we will not be able to come back, and most likely wouldn’t want to.

Had site 23. No lake view but very private as no one is across from the site or close by. 6-7 empty sites each night for first come first serve even over 4th of July weekend.
