Very nice, well-oriented site on pristine lake. Easy yak put in, decent swimming. Relatively close store (5-6 miles?) for ice. No voice cell service, occasionally text could sneak through. Final road adequate for our 20 foot trailer, much longer might be problematic due to big dips and tree proximity.

Boat launch is absolutely awful! Someone can roll an ankle going down to water! And there is no way kids can walk d it a to water without shoes! There are holes where rocks should be and someone is going g to get hurt! Also bathroom needs cleaning

We love the campsite and the lake. A good swimming area is a real plus. Just wish it wasn’t on a lightly used trail that bring a few off road vehicles thru the campsite.

Love this site. However a few four wheelers were using the road in as a trail. Not the kind of privacy we were hoping for.

This was just the kind of campsite we are always looking for. Remote, on a nice lake, with only two campsites. The vault toilet was clean and well maintained. Close enough to town if you want to get out and about.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
