The shittiest campground I stopped by this summer. Booked it because every other camp around Paulina lake was booked solid. All water spouts were dry and taped, and there was no natural water source, either. Outhouses are old and falling apart. Host was not available. And here is the kicker - the camp was mostly empty but they wouldn't allow me to reserve it for just one night, so I had to pay $46 to spend the night there. What a contrast to the great East Lake campground i stopped at earlier!

This was not a favorite campsite of ours. The camp host was so nice and helpful. We found all of his information about the area to be extremely helpful for us to go and explore which is why I'm giving this place a 3. Well that and the amazing things to see in the area. Otherwise, I don't have much to say that's good unfortunately. The vault toilets were pretty disgusting and I was actually worried they were going to fall apart. The campground itself is very very dry and dusty. We've camped in the area before so we thought we knew what to expect but this was so much worse than other places we've stayed.

I reserved (and paid for) our site for two nights. We were visiting friends in SunRiver and after spending the day with them returned to our campsite to find that it was occupied by other campers... the camp hosts had given it away "because we hadn't left anything behind". Well, we've been camping all our lives and had never heard of that "rule". Perhaps we hadn't determined whether we WANTED to use the site a second night - would have been nice to have the option. Maybe we didn't want our things stolen, or crawled on by squirrels, or blown away by the wind. Regardless, if this is a new rule at National Forest campgrounds, it should be described in the registration confirmation and posted at the campground. The host was kind enough to allow us to sleep in a space near his trailer, but his partner was angry and rude to us and made us feel very unwelcome. Needless to say we got an early start so we did not encounter her in the morning.

Beautiful place. A quiet campground that is near lots of fun activities and places to see. The creek is also perfect for small children.
