All the years we have been going to Indian Boundary, we had never seen a bear, until this year. Only for a couple of seconds but we still saw it!Love Indian Boundary, but we would like to be able to hang hammocks back in the trees again.

Lots of space between sites. Had a very enjoyable stay. Plenty to do in the area if you like to take day trips.

Well stocked store. Glad to see it. Campground was quiet for the most and the bathrooms were well stocked and clean.

The campground is absolutely beautiful as is the beach and lake. the bathrooms and showers were cleaned throughout the day everyday. The sites were clean and level, they had a nice fire ring and big picnic table. the campground waqs full the week we stayed however it did not seem like there was anyone around unless you wanted to notice them. sites are private and quiet. I will be back again next year.

Great overall.

Great campground. I enjoyed kayaking on the lake. My grandsons loved riding around on their bicycles. Big, shady sites.Verizon has no cell service, which was kinda nice to get away from the distraction of the phone.

Great hosts who keep the facilities clean and orderly. Great family atmosphere. Only complaint on our last trip (June) was how fast children and teens were riding electric bikes through the campground. Since there are lots of small children and seniors, this could pose risk for severe injury.

I love this campground. I have camped there for years so its hard to write a bad review but its only one thing actually but its huge. The campground has a drainage issue that with any basic rain shower turns the campsite into a mud hole. Its 80% of the sites that are affected. I camp over 15 times a year there and for the last three years its an issue. There is no gravel left in the sites so the water just runs from site to site and takes hours to soak in. Every site needs multiple loads of crush and run gravel and the drainage ditches needs looked into for blockages. If the sites had a good rock base then possibly the run off would not be so bad. I have a camper but for people with tents forget it if it rains as the tent from the bottom will get filled with water. Lastly 50% of the fire pits are rusted out past saving so they need replaced and the wood boarders for the sites are rotted out or broken which also causing water run off issues. I love this place and the camp host there are the best in the business. Its a Federal upkeep issue thats been neglected. Its years past time to spend money on rock, drainage study and basic site maintenance. Its a full three years past time!

Site was clean and ready for setup.Recommend additional water connection in the shower to allowing for rinsing floor.Would like to see additional hours for the camp store.

This was a strange trip. We have been camping here for 40 years. This time we had two sites in our name. One for us and one for my daughter and her husband for part of the time. My son and is wife for the other part. My daughter left on Wedesday morning. Before she was gone 7 hours they had someone over there trying to give them our campsite. Claiming it had been abandoned. My husband told her no it hasn't it is my site and I am right next door. We will be putting a tent up when the rain stops. The next morning (it rained before we could the tent up that night) they sent a Forest Dept employee by. We state the rules to her because we know the rules. Told her the tent would be up in the next hour now that the rain had stopped. She said who is staying there. We pointed to my son and his wife. She said they have to sleep there. Of course they will. Before this happened they had given the site next to us to a couple. When the people came who had booked the site (so 21?), they couldn't get on it because the people were gone for the day. How are they selling sites that people have paid for to other people. Our site (23) they had someone there they were trying to put on it but we had already paid for it. Yet there was another site that for 3 days only a canopy pulled down over a table with a kayak. No tent and no people but they didn't put anyone in their site. I don't know what they are trying to do but according to the rules you can't sell a site someone has paid for. It says that is at least an $80 fine. So why were they trying to sell our site that we had already paid for. It doesn't make sense.

It was my first time ever staying here and it was the best camping experience that my family has ever had. We will definitely be booking another stay.

We absolutely love Indian boundary, it's our home away from home. Our family of 6 never get bored here, from swimming, fishing, riding bikes, playing volleyball or finding a group to play flag football or just relaxing by a fire or at the beach area, we LOVE IT. The camp hosts are wonderful and we love hanging out with Billy and Stacy! -the Crowe's

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!!!
