Called the number on the link and an old man, who worked for the Forest Service, answered and didn’t seem to understand the simple questions we asked. After three attempts to ask if we could use the dump station and the fee amount, we gave up! After a few minutes of searching online, I found the concessionaire, Jennifer Haner’s n... more

A few of the sites have water views but all of the sites are close to Lake Glendale. I really enjoy this campground as many of sites are spacious, shady and wh... more
