This was a beautiful campground. Our site (23) in particular was perfect size for three tents and two cars. The sites were spread apart enough that it felt relatively private, and we couldn't even really hear our neighbors. The falls were gorgeous, and just a short hike from our site.

@WillsT3D3F0678 · Camped on Jun 6, 2025 at Campsite #5

Camp sites were clean apon arrival and reservations were clearly marked. The views were outstanding and camp hosts were readily available and helpful. Overall a amazing experience and we will be back!

Clean campground, private sites. Waterfall is far beyond any superlative I can think of and only 200 feet from our campsite. We did falls viewing twice each day.

There are trail signs but unfortunately they do not provide milage numbers. Please add

Fantastic campsite and environment for camping

@BonnieH5600982 · Camped on May 18, 2025 at Campsite #9

Super camp host, clean throughout camp. Great hiking trails and the surrounding nature is spectacular. Well worth going!

@LoisB835C4DEA1 · Camped on Sep 23, 2024 at Campsite #33

beautiful waterfalls. and trails too. spacious campsites.The only negative: raunchy smelling toilets, but i do recognize it is the end of summer and an accumulation.

@JanellV13D5C4B · Camped on Sep 8, 2024 at Campsite #35

Amazing campground. Camphost and Im guessing additional employees came through and cleaned bathrooms and took out trash it seemed like at least twice a day. Seems to be very well cared for and very clean.

@MarcoB808F3EDA · Camped on Sep 4, 2024 at Campsite #20

Very nice spot with access to 3 stunning waterfalls and cascades.Unfortunately the pit toilets were less stunning and not cleaned.

@TracyG3379421 · Camped on Aug 6, 2024 at Campsite #20

Great campground, large spots,we put 3 tents in this one, plenty of space between the other sites, very quiet at night, short walk to the river and waterfall, hope to be back next year!

@JoseyP16170770 · Camped on Aug 1, 2024 at Campsite #39

The bathrooms were unbearable. There must be something that can be done so theyre not so awful- even flies were dropping dead in them. But the park itself was beautiful. If it wasnt for the bathrooms, we would definitely return.

@GabbyP95041F85 · Camped on Jul 30, 2024 at Campsite #6

Wonderful! Bathrooms are smelly but we didnt mind, the waterfalls are fantastic.

@SarahG7471679 · Camped on Jul 26, 2024 at Campsite #9

Very bumpy road out there, but worth it. Such an incredible place. Only 1 water spout in the whole place and it was quite a walk from our site.

@MichaelB697476 · Camped on Jul 25, 2024 at Campsite #24

Fun, big trees and nice walk to the water falls.

@AshleyP2874745 · Camped on Jul 7, 2024 at Campsite #5

Spacious and shaded, clean sites and toilet. Campers were kind and quiet for there being many RVs (no generators going, though early in the season). Wonderful host (offered activity booklet w/crayons for my kid). 100% recommend.

@JenniferK63850 · Camped on Jul 4, 2024 at Campsite #29

The calendar allowed us to reserve the first day & stated the following 2 days were "FF" first-come, first serve - so we booked expecting to be able to stay all 3 days. We returned from a day trip to the falls to find the ranger in our site who said we had to leave, someone else had the site reserved, he went on to say this location hasn't been FF for over 4 years and they've had "issues" with the app. There is no cell service so there was no way to call or look anything up, we could argue that we had a reservation, we just had to pack up & go. The people who supposedly booked the site were in another site & would walk & bike by, coming in to the site to "check" on us multiple times, causing our dogs to be anxious & protective, then we had a drunk couple stop by & yell at us because the dog kept barking at all the people who kept coming into our space. It was by far one of the worst camping trips I've been on, and I will never use the app again for reservations.

Most beautiful campground!

@GUILLERMoE08D5 · Camped on Jun 27, 2024 at Campsite #6

Awesome experience!

@SavannahPEF732 · Camped on Jun 24, 2024 at Campsite #33

Candice was amazing as the park ranger.

@JessieS3780822 · Camped on Jun 20, 2024 at Campsite #34

Beautiful falls and fun places to hike!

@MatthewB318226 · Camped on Jun 12, 2024 at Campsite #25

This is our favorite campground with great views of the lower falls and the Lewis River. Clean and quiet, with lots of trails to explore. Don't miss the beautiful 3m round trip hike to see the Copper Creek Falls and the Lewis River's middle falls!

@HannahE4280169 · Camped on Jun 9, 2024 at Campsite #25

My family and I loved that a trail lead through the whole campground. Its also very clean and lots of shade.

@BRYANTE806213A · Camped on Jun 1, 2024 at Campsite #32

I arrived at the campground around 230pm. The camp host was present but nowhere to be found. I like it that way as there is less interaction with humans that way, I appreciated it. Anyways,The campsite itself is excellent. Plenty of shade under the canopy trees. Clean and not too much dirt, but rather ground covered in needles. There is some gravel too ok the ground so be a little cautious when using your tent here. Parking was good enough to fit at least three vehicles. There is a nice fire ring with a grill included. Firewood can be purchased from the Eagle Cliff Store a few miles down the road in Northwoods. Early season camping allowed me to collect some fallen sticks and branches for extra fire fuel. I was camped up next to some rather loud folks and even after 10pm they were being loud as all hell. Nevertheless this is a popular campground, so your experience may vary!

@KimberlyD58183 · Camped on May 31, 2024 at Campsite #19

Great campground. Plenty of privacy at the campsite. Quick walk to the falls. Definitely coming back!

@MatthewD639755 · Camped on May 27, 2024 at Campsite #5

The campground is beautiful and well maintained, getting there in the early part of the season is sketchy as the southern route is really rough in some areas and the northern route is closed still

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

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
