This is a small campground with well spaced sites. There are a lot of trees between the sites and the lake, so the best you will have is peekaboo view. This campground is close to the road, so it was never truly quiet. There are several narrow speed bumps, which are annoying when pulling a trailer. The website said there was a dump station, but we didn't see one. There is a $4 dump station 7 miles away at the junction of 83 and 200, though. There are nice trails from the campground to the lake.

Price reflects non-resident fee for electric only. We had a paved pull-thru site with partial shade that was roomy, but not level. Newer bathroom/shower house that was clean but showers cost $$. Never saw the host. We were on the side where the road runs and road noise was bothersome with many large trucks day and night. Some nice trails and the lake is pretty. Absolutely no cell service even with our booster. Had to drive south for a few miles to check email. This campground has a nice bike camping area, but the road seems dangerous for bicycling with high speed limits and narrow shoulders. A little too remote for us.
