Beautiful small campground alongside Paulina creek. I camped at site #6, which is right beside the creek, is a good flat spot with plenty of sunshine and shade. I was even able to get Starlink to work from one particular spot :-). The trail up towards Paulina Falls is right across the bridge, and the water meant it was easy to cool off on warm days. The bathrooms are very basic pit toilets, that were clean. I recommend this campground for good basic, no-frills camping.

Had some out of state friends that came to hang out with us & we had a blast. Hanging by the creek, hiking the trails and enjoying the waterfall. I would highly recommend.

site #6 is creek side - perfect. However, even though a large site with area where a travel trailer could be parked close to the creek, the firepit is located next to parking and table should be close to the creek - instead large rocks placed to block access to the large site - confined to the driveway where a travel trailer has to be parked. I placed my tent close to the creek for more privacy and close to the water - had to make several trips to and from vehicle to unload.
TOO MUCH and check-in is 2p.m.- too hot for all that setting up for camping - not worth it ...wont stay again.

Nice little spot to stop while driving on 97! I camped for a night midweek and it was very quiet, the creek running through was great but I didn't get an opportunity to see much more.

This campsite was amazing. We stayed at #6 and you could tell it was the best camp spot. Multiple cars stopped and looked at us lol. Waking up to the sound of the creek was so peaceful. The only negative was the “bathrooms” smelled so bad and like they are never cleaned out. You could smell it from the outside.
There is a nice long hike to a natural water slide that was ice cold but beautiful. There is a steep hike down. We took our petite 4 years old and she was not to fond of the climb down. But there were other children there. Just be aware that they do bike tours and the last stop is to this area and there were at least 25 people with the group. I would suggest leaving early to beat the crowd.
