I loved how peaceful it was.

Great campground! We've camped here before. We had a concern with our water this last time. Contacted the office staff who were very friendly and helpful and the issue was resolved quickly. If you like to hike, this is a campsite to visit. We will definitely return.

Rustic, quiet, large sites. The Blue Heron trail which is very close by is an excellant trail.

A very quiet night for my mid-week stay. Bathhouse seemed well kept.

Buy firewood in town on your way into BSF. There is no camp store or firewood for sale at Blue Heron.

I enjoyed Blue Heron. Very quiet and dark. Its small but close to trails. Host is very nice.

We had a difficult time getting the water to work as the pump was broken. We had very little water pressure. Could barely flush the toilet or run water at our site. We got in late the first day so we stayed the night and left first thing in the morning because of the water situation. Husband told camp host about it but that did not help us. We would like a refund for the site because of the water. Will not camp at Blue Heron again although we love BSF and use the park frequently. Do not care for the campground as camp host or maintenance should check pumps frequently to be sure they are operable.
