Loved the campground! Only bad thing was our fire ring was rusted out and when you tried to use the grate it came out of the ground. (B8)

Great campground! Clean, beautiful, and even better than I remembered 30 years ago. However, we purchased a generator to use just for this trip and found out we had to turn it off at 8pm-8am! Not cool!

Always a wonderful time. The ice cream at the store is a daily treat that cant be passed. We had a wonderful bear encounter at Abram's Creek. Just remember to keep your distance.

Campground was great. Issues were for almost a week the Ranger office was never open. No patrols from Rangers all week. Fire rings in several sites are rusted out and need replaced. Bathhouse B was clean and maintenance staff did keep it maintained. However the back area bathhouses have.

Staff in the store were pretty rude and not helpful. We found out when we arrived that our reserved campsite had been switched to another area. Instead of a site with a little privacy, we were now in the middle of a busy spot. All in all, it was the most unwelcoming campground we've been to. On the plus side, the area is beautiful. The campground is affordable compared to other places in Townsend. But we left a day early.

Beautiful National Park! Acceptable campground but beware of selecting a site in the generator loops.

It rained the whole time BUT obviously that is not their fault. Our site could have used some grooming but other than that all was very good.

Overall quite pleasant but rain from the remnants of hurricane Ida dumped a lot of water on the tent pad. But what made matters worse was that the floor of the tent pad was dish-shaped which directed water to the underside of the tent. The hand soap dispenser in the men's restroom was broken and only a dab of soap would dispense.

The campground staff was welcoming which helped calm the ill effects of the weather.
