We stayed at Rolling View site B37. This site has electric (50amp, 30amp and 2 110 plugs) and water (water was very brown colored). While this is technically a RV site, we tent camped and had enough room for one 3 person and one 6 person tent. Picnic table was large - 96” and could be moved to wherever you wanted on the tent pad. The fire ring / camp grill was nice - elevated on concrete with fire bricks but the tent bad needed lots of work. It was mostly covered in dirt with just a little gravel in one corner which made everything get covered in dust. The bath houses were decent and not very crowded (most folks at this campground were in RVs). Even though this site didn’t back up to the lake, it was very private with a large dry creek b/w our site and the tent only sites on C loop. We’d stay here again for sure.

The group campsites and beach areas are awesome. Pretty clean, the water depth is good for younger kids, there's usually some shade near the tree line, amenities are clean and functional. No significant complaints come to mind.

Shady sites, many with a water view. Good hiking nearby. Mountains to Sea trail connects to the park and there are other trails a short drive away. There's also a decent lake beach and a put-in for those with boats. Bathrooms are a little dated but are clean.

Beautiful, quiet campground! Nice spacing between sites, and well maintained. Lake activities, playground area, lots of trees. But if you can't see amenities, it's a challenge to find them. Directional signs could some work. When you check in they give you directions to your site, but it's hard to find your way out. No signs pointing to anything , even the entrance/exit!

We just came here for a quick visit. It's very beautiful and seems like a great local place to camp. There's a lot of trees around the campsites, a table and a stove.

Rolling View B Loop is where we have stayed several times since 2018. We typically try to get site B19 but have also stayed on B17. B19 faces the woods so you're not looking at the back of another camper. Since our last stay in 2019 they have upgraded the electrical to 50 amp services which is a big help when temps are warmer and two roof AC units are needed to maintain cooling. There are several nice sites on A & B loops. It's a very colorful Campground in the fall.
