We go to Gulpha Gorge Campground very often. It's very nice and peaceful. Looking forward to our next trip in March.

Gulpha Gorge is a beautiful campground. We were only there overnight, and it was a very easy in and out. We were able to take a much needed and very enjoyable short hike. The facilities were clean and updated. I wish we would have had more time to explore the area. Yes, I would not hesitate to recommend this campground.

Name was not posted on campsite as required. The last campers name was still posted, very confusing .Camp host was not active at all , had to search them out to confirm my reservation. After asking if they were camp host , they never confirmed to me they were. Then yelled out their RV door that I was confirmed.. other campers also said they had no contact with camp host ? They did not want to be bothered !!

We really enjoy visiting Hot Springs and camping at the Gulpha Gorge campground makes it even better. It is great sitting next to the creek and just relaxing.

wonderful campground. only issue i had was very minor but i didnt like all the small individual trash cans. with an rv park i would have thought a dumpster better. why? after anyone puts thier bag in that one is full and its like the cup game finding the empty can in the campground. but it was a full house when i stayed.

Campsite was nice. However with the holiday weekend, a lot of non-campers were wandering through occupied campsites or parking in empty campsites. Probably would have been better further in to the campground/further from the entrance.
