Park host Barry was great . When our trailer wouldnt fit in the site he was able to get us into a perfect fit. Beautiful park. Convenient to the main Park in Hot Sptings

The best hiking trail. Hiked to town several times. Did the bath house. Laid in the creek. We only stayed one day on the way out and it was not enough. and hit it again on our way back from Utah it was so great.

Nice Campground overall. Nice that there are sewer connections at each site. Only comments would be that some of the sites are not very level. Causing folks to have to do a lot of work to Level their camper.Second bigger complaint is that the bathhouse only has one shower. For that many sites thats way too few. Not sure what you were thinking there?

The campground was beautiful and convenient to getting to town. We loved being able to hike right out of the campground. The biggest problem was the bathrooms in the middle of the campground. They were recently updated to include showers, so there are only two bathrooms and in the morning and evening, it was very difficult to use them for anything because so many people were lined up to shower.

Ironically the drinking water was turned off at the water fountains. Yes- theres 1 campground shower, but its also the main bathroom for a camping loop so not designed well. The map was inaccurate and had not been updated with the new dumpster location. No ranger/manager found on site (self check in) campground hosts were labeled on or off duty & both of their cars were gone the entire afternoon so I was unable to get answers to questions. I left after one night.

Great spot. Bathrooms were nice and easy access to hiking trails and hot springs
@JohnG7676070 · Camped on Jun 16, 2025 at Campsite #33
Since the restroom/shower combinations are for a single camper, the rooms should be unisex - not mens and womens.

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

Gulpha Gorge is one of my favorite places to camp and hike. Beautiful area. Campground is great!

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.

Great Park
@ErinL2156631 · Camped on Jun 2, 2025 at Campsite #43
Sites are very close together, with no privacy. Had a site next to river. We had to set up our tent next to the electric and sewer connection of next campsite. Had strong sewer smell all night.
@JesseA7538146 · Camped on Jun 1, 2025 at Campsite #41
Nice park. only complaint there were no laundry amenities.
@karylDFB0D199A · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #31
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.
@MichaelS838841 · Camped on May 29, 2025 at Campsite #27
Great campground!
@StephenW521762 · Camped on May 27, 2025 at Campsite #37
Excellent campground
@ErikM184509056 · Camped on May 24, 2025 at Campsite #13
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!

The campground was well lit. It was clean and well maintained. It was close to the Hot Springs National Park. We were able to ride our bikes to the park. There are water front lots and hiking trails right behind some lots. It was a perfect campground for the outdoor adventures we wanted. 10 out of 10, we would come back!

Beautiful campground and quick drive to downtown.

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.

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!!!
