Nice campground, but a church group regularly parks RVs in the prime spots while no one is using them in order to reserve the spots WEEKs before anyone actually camps at the site. Very selfish of this church and I'm surprised this is allowed.

Used the directions given from Google to try and get up there. Ended up taking us through an absolutely terrifying one way car path (not even a road) that ultimately ended up scratching and damaging our vehicle. Absolutely hated it and wished we never tried to get there.

Camping here is free. Nice campsites with fire pits and picnic tables. Pit toilets. A pretty lake with decent size trout. Fun to paddle around in. We swam in it too, but the muddy bottom makes the water murky. There are leeches, but they weren't a problem unless you stood in the mud for awhile (they especially liked open cuts!). A fun dock area to fish or swim from. No good beach area. Boat ramp. A fair number of mosquitos when I was there in July.

Absolutely beautiful. Nice trails even a wheelchair accessible one and sights that are wheelchair accessible! Nice safe fire pits. Camp host is super great even after we accidentally broke the handle on his ax. He brought us lots of chopped wood everyday! Let us know where really cool places to hike were. Absolutely loved it!!!

It's not a swi.ming lake. Fishing and kayaking. Although I fell in and lost my pole! Glad I didn't know about the leaches!! Black fly and mosquitoes were bad last month.

How is the road to get here? Specifically from the East

The road from Ione is near impassible and I have an AWD Honda car. High clearance trucks would be best - but not with a camper. Sept 2020 the roadside growth has grown all the way into the middle of the road, and the center road growth is as high as 4’ in places. The road became narrower and narrower - and with 5.2 miles left on my gps - I carefully turned around and headed to the Colville side entrance.
