Per ranger still first come first served, fairly primitive. Bring own water.

You can camp, rent a cabin, or easy stay. Lots of amenities.

The description is somewhat misleading. North River campground is not located near a lake. It is located beside a lovely stream which is ideal for kids (and adults)! I was there today and everything is in great shape.
