What campers say

Half Moon Lake Campground is a small, affordable lakeside site tucked among willows and aspens with about two dozen sites and many short walks to sandy beaches and a boat ramp. It is generally well maintained with clean facilities and laundry, and a nearby lodge offers meals and occasional live music, though dining experiences have varied. Expect limited cell service, narrow rocky access roads and tight turnarounds that can be difficult for larger RVs or trailers. About half the sites are reservable, so weekends can feel crowded and groups may occupy multiple sites; bugs can be an issue seasonally.
