Confirmed by 2 users | Last reported on July 12, 2019We pulled in a week before 4th of July weekend, snagged a first come, first serve spot. Campground is on Lake Cascade with a boat ramp and plenty of fishing spots. No hookups but water on site to use. There are also vault toilets. Everything is clean, camp host Jim is very nice, helpful and will offer you left over wood if abandon from other sites. There is tons of water access around the area for lake swimming, dogs are always welcome. Some sites are a little close together and some are more spread out, definitely lots of elbow room in each one, and well shaded. Not big rig friendly, one way road through campground. Definitely one of our favorite areas. There is tons of hiking and there are jet ski, side by side and 4 wheeler rentals down the road. AT&T 4G LTE service was great.

$15/7.50 with senior pass.
No electric, plenty of threaded water spigots throughout, garbage and boat launch. We maneuvered our 40’ 5th wheel fine but I’m not sure I’d take anything bigger without walking it first. Out of the 12 sites I’d say a big rig could fit in almost 1/2 of them. You can make resos or some are FCFS depending on time of year. There is gas, propane, dump and laundry ($1.50 to wash!) in Donnelly. Groceries and pharmacy in McCall. Sites 7 and 8 are best and have a sandy beach right behind the sites. We kayaked at the lake and other nearby lakes and rivers. Much to do in McCall and Cascade. Fantastic Italian food at Ragazza di Bufalo in Donnelly. Breweries in McCall. We had the campground to ourselves most of our 10 days, end of Sep beginning of Oct. Weather was 70s80s/ low 49s at night.
