The area is stunning, and the hikes are beautiful. The campgrounds are nicely spaced. The only ok part was that the sink wasnt working in one of the bathrooms. Since there are very active bears, you must put all food including coolers into the large bear bins and not in the car. Dishes must be washed in the sink and scraps must be in a bear safe trash can. Great campground, amazing park! Oh. Lots of trout for fishing, but most were too small in May.

Great campground. Showers are available next to the Cedar Grove Market in the laundry building, but must buy token for about $1.50 per 5 minutes. Lots of places to play in the river but stick to the calm sections.

Very nice campground under the trees with a meadow along the upper top. Sunrise in the morning was beautiful through the trees. Sites were pretty level for a camper van and are very wide. You won't feel like you're camping on top of someone else. Small visitor center in the campsite, and a store across the river.

Sentinel is always a great location. Bikes and hammocks are worth the hassle of transport.
