Site 32 is a beautiful, spacious site but I'm only giving 3 stars for the following reasons:-There were continuous groups of hikers coming through the campsite to and from Elk within a few feet of our tent, although the Forest Service had put considerable amount of work into blocking the access. A sign stating: "Trail is Closed", would be helpful. -I'm local and have been camping at Pawnee for well over 40 years and within the last few years with the current reservation system it is rare that I'm able to reserve a site, EVEN THOUGH ON ANY GIVEN NIGHT AS MANY AS 20% OF THE SITES ARE UNOCCUPIED. There should be a penalty greater than a $10 cancellation fee for no-shows such as not allowing parties that don't show up to reserve a another site for a year.-At several sites, campers would leave an RV or tent and not occupy the site for several days.-Although the reservation states a noon check out, the campground hosts would arbitrarily write "11am" checkout on the campsite signpost.Aside from these issues Brainard remains one of the most beautiful sites in the country.

Quiet site. Immaculate.

Not what it used to be. They razed paradise and put up a parking lot. Dogs bark without consequence, kids play loudly without consequence, and several campers play music loudly enough to be heard several sites away. I hope the inconsiderate ones are COVID campers, and they'll go back to their previous activities soon, but for now, don't come to Pawnee expecting to bask in the quiet sounds of nature. Possibly for the above reasons, we saw much fewer birds this year than previously.

Site 32 which is marked as a Double/Group site for up to 15 people is inaccurate. There is only one tent pad site so if you want to have 15 people you need to have most people in RV or campers. There are clearly area that people have put tents directly next to this site, and we weren’t bothered till night 3 when the camp host first asked us to move a tent that was closer to an adjacent site. A few hours later two different camp hosts told us both tents off the site needed to be moved to the parking area or they would call the Sheriff to have us removed. Being several nights in and on our final night to request this was very unfortunate. Information about this site needs to be updated to accurately reflect usage so this doesn’t happen again. Thanks
