What campers say
North Eden Campground is a newer, well‑maintained lakeside site with level pads, covered picnic tables or pavilions, and easy beach access. Restrooms are pit toilets; there are no dump stations or showers and on-site supplies are limited, so plan accordingly. Sites offer little shade because trees are young. The shoreline is a mix of sand and rock and can be muddy near the water. Pets are allowed and staff/camp hosts are frequently described as helpful. It can be quiet outside peak times but may feel congested when the campground is full.
