We had a great weekend. Showers and bathrooms were clean. Everyone was super friendly. We were in spot 21 and it was not as spread out from the other two sites as advertised but that was not a big deal. Would definitely come back to stay again.

Two friends and I booked sites 20, 21 & 22. Each site was big and it was great the three of them were secluded from other sites. Bathrooms were a bit of a walk but that wasn't a problem for us. Showers were good. I wish they would put longer shower curtains in since everything seems to get wet but we're camping so not a big deal. We had an awesome time and will be back.

Roomy site, close proximity to trails, Mine 18, overlooks. We were in site 20 in the circle, very private.

We loved this place. It was so quiet it was unbelievable. We were in site 21. By the way 20,21 & 22 are all next to each other. Not like shown on the map. No problems, no complaints and already talking about another trip there this Summer.

We had an extremely positive experience at Blue Heron campground. Our site was in the back of the campground, so it was private, and we backed up to the woods. The water hookup at our site was a little tricky, but everything else was perfect. Lots of trails nearby. We would definitely return to this campground.
