Nice campsite in the woods next to the stream. Great to have full hook ups. Camp host was very helpful.

This site and others along this row are quite close together. Picnic table is close the neighbors dump sewer. We didn't really spend any time sitting outside, but did enjoy the hike nearby. We had site 16 the day before. That one was for a smaller RV but more spacious.

Nice park. only complaint there were no laundry amenities.

Great spot ON the river/creek! Just beautiful! Great hiking. Some sites a bit close together for a national park but understand- not that big an area.

Excellent campground

It's a wonderful camp site. My wife and I enjoyed it immensely. The trails are fantastic, but in need of some maintenance, vandals have ruined a few of the trail signs. There is a large tree down on one of the trails. We didn't think our site #13 had a sewer receptacle we found it buried under 3 inches of dirt and roots. I dug out the platform as best I could. I know the national parks are strapped for help and money so I don't hold it against you. Just thought I'd let you know. Thanks for all you do!

Beautiful campground and quick drive to downtown.
@wades1574140 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #16
Quiet park, bathrooms okay
@JacobF34E99F2F · Camped on May 22, 2025 at Campsite #12
Very nice campground. Grounds are well-kept. Close to Bathhouse Row and all Hot Springs has to offer while still feeling secluded.
@LindaH1671742 · Camped on May 21, 2025 at Campsite #28
Very nice campsites! We throughly enjoyed our stay
@Christina790A6 · Camped on May 19, 2025 at Campsite #19
Beautiful natural environment. Quiet. Great hiking path although the first 1/4 mile was a challenging climb. It was well with the effort. Very quiet and great camping spots. We were fully satisfied .
@IanW4277699 · Camped on May 19, 2025 at Campsite #22
Great place to go camping, with its proximity to Hot Springs you can easily hike or drive into town to enjoy the bathhouses or many nice restaurants and shops. The campground was well maintained and the people taking care of it were friendly. The bathrooms were clean, and it was nice having access to a shower. Highly recommend it!
@RondyM2D115C2E · Camped on May 19, 2025 at Campsite #33
Lovely place, well kept and clean.
@KarenL1374189 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #10
This is a nice place to stay that is close to Hot Springs town. Please note the space #10 is not level at all and our fifth wheel was high in the air. Nice close hikes in the National Forest.
@PhilipH1251789 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #5
Overall a nice park. There is a lot of hiking, which we love. Unfortunately there is a lot of traffic noise being so close to the main road. But we will be back!
@MichaelL540355 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #8
Loved both Hot Springs and the campground! Will be back.
@JEFFH5417641 · Camped on May 17, 2025 at Campsite #30
Pleasant experience along the creek. Easy access to trails. Friendly host.
@LawrenceJE3F23 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #4
A surprisingly small campground for this National Park, yet it was quite nice. Will come again.
@DennisLED3FBB4 · Camped on May 12, 2025 at Campsite #35
Campsite 35 was too small and crowded.
@LisaH3162185 · Camped on May 11, 2025 at Campsite #6
Campground was nice. However site 10 and a few others had such an incline there was no way toLevel our motorhome even with 4 sets of leveling blocks. We had to move to an overflow site which ment that I was not at the site next to my sister that we had planned 8 months earlier. The photos on the website are deceiving. The campground host was great. The bath houses were clean. But they should warn people about the unevenness of the site.
@NathanV8C65C89 · Camped on May 9, 2025 at Campsite #42
We really enjoy visiting Hot Springs and camping at the Gulpha Gorge campground makes it even better. It is great sitting next to the creek and just relaxing.
@BillH7338117 · Camped on May 8, 2025 at Campsite #36
Nice and quiet. Clean showerhouse. Sites are close together so not much privacy.
@OuidaM0DEDECF2 · Camped on May 7, 2025 at Campsite #13
Small campground but close to town. Very pretty. Bathhouse was fine but could have used more showers.

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.
@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.
