Wanted to drive and check this out bit the road is completely closed at the 10 mile snow park in January. We hiked back to the falls and the area is very pretty. Would come back.

Camped here for 5 nights during the 2017 Eclipse. The campground is well maintained, and the scenery is incredible. Our site had a lot of space for our kids to run around. The ground is very fine dust, the kind that gets into everything. That's typical in the cascades, so we expected that. The area has a lot to offer: great fishing (we caught a nice rainbow trout on our last day), biking, hiking, swimming, and the caldera related activities, like the Obsidian Flow. East Lake and its resort are a short drive away, which offers a gift shop. restaurant, boat rentals and other activities. Also, some of the best beaches on the lake are there (just to the right of the parking area). Summer weather is warm days and cool nights. Smoke from the area wild fires can be an issue in the summer time. Overall great camping experience.
