Beautiful wooded and spacious campsite. Quiet and clean. Hosts were excellent. Hiking trails were well marked and groomed. We wanted a get away weekend to relax and it did not disappoint. Strategically located for day trips if desired.

Very nice for campground. great for hiking and kayaking. Wish they had more sites as it is very hard to get a site here.

This is an outstanding campground. The hosts are friendly and welcoming. The facility is always clean and quiet. It has outstanding hiking trails. It is very scenic. We try to camp here at least once a year if we can. Our only complaint continues to be that it closes so early in the year. Fall camping in New England is the best and unfortunately this campground is not available in the fall.

Very well maintained sites and facilities with friendly and helpful hosts. We will be back for sure.

Beautiful, small campground with large, private, level sites. Flower beds at entrance are gorgeous. I stayed 13 nights and enjoyed the trail system. Theres one bathhouse with one shower per gender. Hosts keep it clean and stocked. So, why 3 stars? The hot water in shower is erratic. Its hot for a minute or two, but then goes cold.

We love this campground and have been going for years. It's small, well kept, and the perfect spot for a weekend away.

We really appreciate the well maintained sites. The campground is close enough to our home to make it very easy trip for a quick camping get away. The host are always available and pleasent.

The campground is a hidden gem with nice hiking trails around a small lake. The campground has a nice shower facility and a large frisbee golf course.

A quiet campground with a competent staff.

Clean well kept campground. Away from main roads.

This was our second stay here, it has become one of our favorite campgrounds. Small and quiet with secluded (especially #1), fairly level, well maintained packed crushed gravel wooded sites. Single loop on a hillside, roughly one side RV sites and the other tent sites. Narrow tree lined gravel road, a little steep but workable for bigger rigs. Pristine bath house with excellent showers. Very nice small playground for the kiddos behind the bath house. The camp hosts (both couples) among the nicest that we have ever had the pleasure to meet. As a side note, this is COE campground is patrolled by rangers several times a day. Earlier this season we spent a week at a much larger COE in AR during which we saw a ranger patrol once, the difference in guest behavior was astounding.

@AliciaW2592121 · Camped on Jul 21, 2024 at Campsite #6
Been to this campground many times. Small, quiet. Hosts are helpful.
@LaurenN9455006 · Camped on Jul 19, 2024 at Campsite #FL1
This is a great campground. The sites are private and it is not crowded at all. It was quiet despite being completely full. The bathrooms were clean. We were traveling with a 2 year old and infant. The playground was impressive for a campground with multiple large slides, various climbing options, and a swing set. The staff was very accommodating. Check in was fast and easy.
@DOREENB7997787 · Camped on Jul 17, 2024 at Campsite #6
We really enjoyed this COE. The hosts were great! Water and electric on site. Dump station. Gates are locked at night. Site was very level. The only drawback to this campground is that the road is gravel. The road leading down to the water was blocked off because the ACOE was practicing ribbon bridge building. We watched as helicopters brought in supplies. We drove a little bit down the road to Buffomville Lake to be near the water, beach and picnic area. The biologists were counting fish species while we were there. It was a very cool experience to watch activity at both locations

Love the campground, but we wait all year to come and use the lake. Planned our vacation, came down, and to our disbelief and sadness, they closed the lake for the whole week. Without any notice so we couldn't even cancel in time. Not good.
@BillW3053174 · Camped on Jul 11, 2024 at Campsite #8
everything good as usual-frequent camper here. Camp hosts were excellent - super friendly and helpful.
@LisaE8884168 · Camped on Jul 8, 2024 at Campsite #4
The camp hosts obviously love their jobs and checkin was easy and friendly. This cg looks fabulous and the patio and landscaping by the front gate is quite cute. This is a campers paradise, quiet, simple. We look forward to being back!
@RuthWBB8B53EA0 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #18
Very clean bathroom and tenting area.
@LucindaF48ABC8 · Camped on Jun 28, 2024 at Campsite #10
Easy check-in; friendly, informative volunteers who keep the sites beautifully maintained, even raked! The sites are long, wide and well shaded. The campground is in a quiet area but not too far from retail stores if needed. I took off one star for the sketchy dump station which does not have a sealed connection. Just drop your hose in front of the inlet and let 'er rip. The immediate area around the inlet showed evidence of a recent hazardous spill which supports my shock that this setup is allowed anywhere. Even if the state doesn't require a sealed connection, it should be done anyway.

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!!!
