What campers say

Thielsen View offers easy, paved access to a shallow, calm lake with a loop trail and good mountain views. Sites are generally large with picnic tables and potable water spigots, and vault toilets are routinely maintained; some visitors note the water is shut off late in the season. Hosts are described as friendly, and free firewood is sometimes available. Common tradeoffs: mosquitoes can be very aggressive, and some sites are close together or tight to back into. Fishing is popular, but occasional poor shoreline cleanup and inconsiderate camper behavior have been reported.
