Name: We spent a night at this campground, and it was pleasant. The price for one night was a bit high, but the stunning mountains and the lake surrounding it were absolutely breathtaking. I wasn't particularly fond of the restaurant at the campground, but overall, the location itself was fantastic. I would definitely recommend it.
