Maybe we've stayed in too many campgrounds, or maybe it's because there are nicer campgrounds in the area, but Lodgepole is just a 3 out of 5 stars in my opinion.
There's street noise and the roads are narrow and rutted. I love the Lodgepole pines, but think that Phillipsburg Bay is much nicer.
Everyone might not agree with my opinion, because when we walked around the loop there were some campers who shouted out to us "on a scale of 1 to 10, this is a 15!"
I did get 2 bars of 4G with a booster.

We rolled in at dusk. Camp was pretty much empty. Very tight Forrest location. Spot 18 isn’t level but we made it work. Bathrooms were cleanest I’ve seen. The host was very friendly. There were lots of misquotes at dusk for a while.

The bathrooms are very clean and smell nice. We reserved a tent spot, but the camp spot was slanted. Not super tent friendly, but had a nice picnic table and fire ring.
