When we first arrived, we thought wed found the best COE campground weve ever stayed at. The staff is awesomefriendly, helpful, and welcoming. The campground itself is spotless, the sites are spacious, and the scenery along the river is nothing short of beautiful. Add in the fact that every site is full hook-up, and it seemed like Gunter Hill had everything a camper could ask for.So why only three stars?THE SMELL.Theres a nearby paper plant that unleashes one of the most offensive assaults on the olfactory senses Ive ever experienced. It smells like raw sewage mixed with something chemicaland once it rolls in, it stays. What started as a dream stop quickly turned into a challenge of endurance.We closed windows, ran filters, lit candles, even cracked open bottles of Pine-Sol for backup. At one point, we joked about breaking out the N-95 masks, but honestly, they probably wouldnt have helped much.Its a real shame because everything else about Gunter Hill is absolutely top-notch. If the wind is right or the plant isnt active, this could easily be a 5-star campground. But as it stands, that smell is impossible to ignoreand thats why its only three stars from us.

We decided to add a day to our trip and stay overnight at Gunter Hill. It did not disappoint! The sites are very roomy and quiet. I loved the scenery. We will definitely be coming back!

The sites here are so spacious and tree lined. One of my favorites so far

Campsite was great. The showers were not great- the drain was stopped up and the floor flooded as I showered. I would have tried a different Shower had I known the problem.

We stayed on site 40 on the Catoma loop. Sight was very large and level. Grounds were well maintained and restrooms were clean. All in all a beautiful location. We will be back for sure.

It was our second trip in our camper trailer and Gunter Hill was a beautiful place!
The camp sites were top notch!
And plenty of space between the sites!
We will be back!!!!

Very nice CG that we have stayed at a couple of times. Nice large sites.
@JimE616 · Camped on Mar 1, 2021 at Campsite #40
This has become one of our favorite campgrounds. The sites are nice and long, with nice firepit too. We love to ride our bikes throughout the campground.

Need a dog run area or 2

This was our first visit to a campsite next to the water. We stayed in #40 as it had an awesome view of the water front. Always love the spacious sites at Gunter Hill. Don't cha just wish other campgrounds (such as Wind Creek State Park) had this much room for your camper and families to enjoy life together. Of course it's all about the mighty dollar $$$ at all the other Non-COE campgrounds.

We travel full-time but have a home near Montgomery. Whenever we come back to check on our house, we stay at Gunter Hill. We love how well-kept everything is. Even after the storms came through, they were very fast about getting everything cleaned back up. The views of the river are beautiful.
