This is a very nice campground within hiking distance of Bathhouse Row and the restaurants.

We really like the close proximity to the campground. How the water outlets were insulated so they wouldnt freeze thought that was a good idea. And if we had more time we wouldve stayed longer to explore more but unfortunately, this was just a stop over from Texas.

Brian was the host and he was very attentive to everything. The facility hook ups were great, the park was clean and the surroundings were beautiful. It was a great stay. We want to go back!

Gulped Gorge campground is nestled in the woods right on Gulpha Creek. Each campsite is gorgeous. We had one right on the Creek and it was beautiful. Has electricity and water. It's a great little campground!

Nice and quiet. Clean showerhouse. Sites are close together so not much privacy.

We had the most fantastic time at Gulpha Gorge! The campsites were clean, well-organized, and nestled in such a beautiful setting. The bathrooms were a huge convenience, and the showers were a welcome bonus after long days exploring. I loved how close everything wastown, stores, and incredible trails were all just minutes away. It was the perfect balance of nature and convenience. We cant wait to come back!

Great campground, nice sites. Perfect access to hiking trails. Be careful in the campsites, the parking pads all have drop offs at the edges to the ground of about 2 or 3 inches. A very dangerous trip hazard!
@PhyliciaC6FB6E · Camped on Feb 26, 2025 at Campsite #36
Easy sites to back into. Level pads. Campground and bathrooms were very clean! This is such a beautiful campground, get a site along the stream if you can!

We really enjoyed this campsite. We slept in a tent right on the creeks edge. The bathrooms were right next to us and the trees were beautiful. Lots of RVs around us and sites are close together but we would visit again. :)

We were in Site 36, next to the creek. Very peaceful listening to the creek flow by. Sites are close together and a little tough to get into with a longer trailer (we have a 32 ft. TT). Site was mostly level, sewer hookup is slightly uphill so dumping tanks was a little difficult. Bathhouse is very clean and private (have to have a code to get in). Bathhouses in Hot Springs are close by and nice to visit.

We were in site #36 using 19 ft travel trailer. Grounds and bathroom were clean. Fire pit had ashes removed but piled up next the pit Site was level with easy access. Being close the creek noise wasnt an issue. If tent camping is allowed showers should be provided

Campsites are too close to each other. We prefer showers at campgrounds. Gulpha Gorge needs more dumpsters or more frequent pick-up from the one that is there.

The campsite was clean, neighbors were friendly and quiet. Was great to have a fire right on the river, with a nice trail up to Goat Rock Viewpoint. If I am in the area again I wouldn't hesitate to stay here.

What a serene and tranquil park! Lovely camp sites with lots of shade! Fantastic to be able to get in the river and cool off. Lovely trails also. Three minutes to town. Great downtown to explore and eat.

The site by the creek was wonderful. They had just redone the roads in the campground so they were nice a smooth. The bathroom were nice and clean. The camp host were informative about the area and the campground. The noise from the road right by the campground was a little annoying but we expected that since it was a campground in the cities.

Campground was very clean, easy to maneuver around and well monitored. We felt very welcomed. We were right next to the creek, which was the farthest away from the road, but the traffic noise still took away from the tranquility of the creek and forest.
