★★★★☆ 4.0 Pavel Viktor Boxan · Oct 2023

Beautiful area. It's a small campground, but luckily there are some primitive camping spots around the lake as well. BTW, the last 6 miles of the access road is pretty rugged, high clearance vehicle is recommended..

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Denning · Aug 2022

Long dusty access road is too rocky and should be smoothed out. No TP in the outhouse. Nobody around to talk to. The hike up to Purgatory Saddle was straight up and the birds make fun of you if you have to stop and rest. Trees and thunderstorm clouds blocked any good views and the hailstones hurt! Too many rocks in general. Don't expect much, a real dud.

★★★★★ 5.0 Roger Darner · Aug 2025

The drive up was a little rough in some places but well worth it! Gorgeous lake but very very crowded!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Honest Truth · Aug 2021

Great get away! But LONG dirty and small road in... go in at your own risks if you aren’t used to driving on edge of road or 1 lane gravel roads I don’t recommend. And if you don’t like dirt don’t even think about it. The dust is 6 inches deep everywhere. It took me a week to clean up everything from our trip

★★★★☆ 4.0 Tony Laird · Jul 2018

The campground is nice, just too many people.
