Mountain park has alway been our go to for camping :) Our experience this time was ok, but not the same as it used to be. We were greeted graciously by the host:) Love the bear proof containers, however they had reminisce of previous visitors left inside. The camping perimeter used to be well kept, raked and cleaned. This time definitely not groomed or cleaned. The fire pit was more than half full, which is surprising considering the fire danger. There were piles of toilet paper through out the outside perimeters of the site, obvious toilet spots, along with various pieces of trash and cans. Bathrooms were clean :) however the host proceeded to run an obnoxious power washer, literally noticed it around 2:30 till I asked him to please stop, washing the shower side walks, at dusk 7:00 pm. (we were in site 3) We can appreciate his devotion to cleanliness there, but not at our paid expense of 4 1/2+ hours of continuous noise. So, yes, we were sadly a bit disappointed with our recent visit.

We loved the peaceful atmosphere, the walking paths along the river, and the space between the campsites. There is a nice hike loop and map near the entrance to the campground.

As an avid camper we have been pleased with this campground on previous visits. However, our visit in August was worst camping experience ever. Never saw Mark the camphost except at his RV. Campground needed attention. Fire pit was over flowing, bear box had trash in it, and there as litter all over the campsite. What was worse was the unclean bathrooms and clogged drain in shower from all the hair on the drain. It was very apparent no one had been cleaning the campground yet there was a host on site. There was a group at the group site and we witnessed them picking up trash and sweeping the bathroom when they 1st arrived. Very unfavorable experience for many campers

No water hookup for rvs. They claim it is to prevent cross connections. A cross connection device would solve that problem. No very expensive to make it so you dont have to buy water in Rustic RV Park for $.75 a gallon! We were there four days and the bathrooms were never cleaned. No fly strips so the flies were bad in the outhouse. Only thing the host did was replace the toilet paper.

Our fire pit was full of trash and cans when we arrived to site 14. Tried to find camp host and didnt see them until the morning we were leaving. We took all the trash out and logs that were 1/2 burned and finally had our own fire. Restrooms were cleaned once in the three days and two nights we were there. Smelled very bad. Learn from Lake Dowdy hosts please.

Getting into park was ok but trying to get into campground took 40 minutes

Great place to camp. Nice to be near the river.

Gorgeous setting, campsite was clean and ready to go. Electricity worked well!
@ChrisR8980926 · Camped on Jul 20, 2025 at Campsite #13
We had an amazing time and this place is awesome. Great location on the river with plenty of places to get in and play for the day. The sites are well-maintained. The hosts are kind and welcoming and everything is very clean. The showers were great!
@PaulD5437485 · Camped on Jul 20, 2025 at Campsite #7
Mountain Park is one of my favorite campgrounds. Forested and quiet with ample size sites. Located well to swimming, rafting, hiking, and other outdoor activities. A nice respite without a prohibitive drive.
@JohnW6002125 · Camped on Jul 13, 2025 at Campsite #14
Nice spot to camp with a 23 trailer. Great shower for $1 and clean toilets. Wonderful and safe wading area on the river. Plus a nice walking trail along the river. This is our second visit.
@GustaveGD0B0DC · Camped on Jul 6, 2025 at Campsite #3
No hot water in mens showers, shower broken in the handicap shower, the fire pit was not cleaned out, my wife and I spent an hour cleaning out the fire pit.
@RobertC4745893 · Camped on Jul 6, 2025 at Campsite #20
Close to the river beach, nice 4 mile loop trail, spacious sites and coin operated hot showers!
@HollyH3892241 · Camped on Jul 4, 2025 at Campsite #12
Amazing host and always a peaceful, great time here!
@TamaraH733F0ED · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #8
Really well-maintained and family-friendly campsite! My only drawback was that we didn't actually find firewood available on site, but luckily our neighbors had some we could borrow. More information about where to find firewood would be helpful for guests trying not to bring their own wood into the park (which I believe is discouraged).

We have been going to Mountain Park for 25 years. The management of the Park is the worst we have ever seen. We never saw a bathroom or showers cleaned in the 6 days we were there. We never witnessed a camping spot raked or cleaned either. It was so much better when the former Company managed it. It is shameful.

Our new favorite campground. Had an amazing time. Great site along the river. Lots of shade and humming birds. Clean hot showers. Loved the evenings playing volleyball with the kids
@GaryH6725051 · Camped on Jun 24, 2025 at Campsite #13
Compared to previously years, the facility maintenance was not as good. Hardly ever saw anyone clean restrooms or empty trash.
@DarcyH8688162 · Camped on Jun 21, 2025 at Campsite #27
Beautiful staten park! Lots of hiking trails, including ranger led hikes. Great presentations and friendly staff.
@UrsulaM3AA391F · Camped on Jun 20, 2025 at Campsite #1
Beautiful camping site with plenty of shade. Half the sites are by reservation only and half are first come first serve.
@BrianM6776107 · Camped on Jun 19, 2025 at Campsite #31
One of the best most beautiful parks but the company running it is the worst. Only 1 non-existent camp host when there have been 3 or more in the past often out in their golf carts but not this one. No evidence they were cleaning the bathrooms much less anything else. Bugs and trash on the floor the whole visit. Only one of the 3 showers in both the men's and women's bathrooms working with no hot water. And the men's ADA shower was one of the out of order stalls.
@JimC3359791 · Camped on Jun 18, 2025 at Campsite #23
The camp sites aren't getting cleaned up, the bathrooms are full they need pumped out, the showers only one in each shower room worked and they only had cold water. The company that took over the care of the park only had 1 camp host for the whole park. I have been camping here for over 20 years, and this was the worst I've ever saw the park.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
