Clean restrooms and excellent sites. Kayakers can easily access the creek.
The swarm of mosquitos was nothing short of biblical, and the relentless noise from low flying helicopters and highway traffic made sure we didn’t sleep. We ended up packing up and leaving at 2:30 in the morning. There were also significant challenges with communication.
Lisa is a wonderful campsite host. The location right on Cache Creek is really quite special as is the small docks for water access from your own campsite. The site is good, though it's a little tight in terms of space between sites. Also, be aware that the southernmost sites can be a bit noisy with the roadway nearby.
We have enjoyed our stay at this campground along Cache Creek. The sites are well shaded, level and spacious. Full hookups, clean restrooms, refreshing pool (around 3-4 ft deep), playground, pier, and nice common areas make it a great place to relax and enjoy. It is in a convenient location but remains more private. Sites have a picnic table and fire ring. Wood is available for purchase. Definitely recommend.
Great spot. Peaceful and clean. All rv hookups worked. Friendly staff, public restrooms clean. We will camp here again!!!
