We (family with kids aged 10 and 16) recommend the nature trail. It's short and sweet and informative. Other than that, enjoy the spectacular views, day and night!

Great spot. When we got there someone was there. They were supposed to be at spot 50. They did move but it was kinda awkward . I suggest a sign pointing with spot 51. Other that that we had a great time. Clean area & bathroom. Nice respectful people camping. Quiet at night. Close to town. Highly recommended this campground.

Campsite was clean as was the restroom.

This place was absolutely amazing! We loved it. The people we were around were super nice, almost like a little neighborhood. The views were stunning, both sunset & sunrise. The sites were clean, almost as if no one was ever there. We will absolutely be back again!

Really good camping site only downside is your sharing parking with site 50 and your actual campsite is further away from your Parked vehicle . So you will need to carry your gear right by campsite 50. Lucky for us they where a no show but other than that it was a perfect campsite.

Bathrooms well maintained, roomy campsite with great view, open, not-crowded feel.

We always reserve at Jumbo Rocks, and this was our first time at Indian Cove. It’s a beautiful campground.

Beautiful scenery; nice campsites & clean restrooms.

Enjoyed camping here. Site 50 & 51 are kind of weird set up but we were able to get it worked out with the neighbors. Sunset and night skies are nice. Bathroom could have used some better cleaning. Kids had fun climbing whole parents relaxed!

We stayed at site 51. It had an excellent location, right next to many rock piles for scrambling and easy access to a pit toilet. Phone service was pretty much non-existent, occasionally would work. One of my favorite campgrounds!

When we arrived, someone else was in our campsite. The ranger mistakenly re-sold our site.
