Quiet, big site, bathrooms are clean. Lots of Spiders and Ticks, prepare accordingly.

Maple Springs has very large campsites, which is a nice bonus. But what they don't tell you is that campsite #4 is on a steep hill which means if you are in a tent there are not many places to put a tent easily. What was not pleasant about Maple Springs were the outhouses. There were 4 outhouses and each one was just as bad as the next one. They were so dirty that a person would be thinking that they were going to be getting a disease from using them. There was fecal matter all over the tube going down to the pit. The stench was so bad that while you were 20 yards away, on the road, you could smell it. The doors did not lock on two of them by the way that they designed the openings for the locks. And one of them had a snake in it. We were there for two days and no one came to clean or inspect the campground or the outhouses. Really they looked and smelled like they have not been cleaned in a very long time.

The trailer sites are angled the wrong way. You need to enter the campground through the entrance with the sign do not enter. While pulling out of the campground to back up on the main road (hoping no traffic would come), I cut the turn too sharp and my wheels went into the ditch and hit the stone culvert. Had to get a welder to come out and repair my trailer.

We stayed in the Maple Springs campground. They recently paved so sights are level. Very remote and secluded. Only a a few other sites at location, so very peaceful. Beautiful hiking and biking trail right at entrance. Be aware, if driving RV need to go around park (adds 45 minutes) to get to visitor center and dump station. If have car, can take ferry which only takes about 20 minutes. Did not bother us-but just be sure to plan accordingly. Great location and cave tour was amazing! Highly recommend.

The site itself was nice. We had multiple tents and this site wasn't the most level. Also, we arrived at 7pm and the ferry closed at 6pm. Not a nice surprise. We had to drive over an hour around in the dark. We made the best out of a not enjoyable situation.

We enjoyed our experience at this campground. Although a group campground, we didn’t hear anything from the other campers and enjoyed the ‘off the grid’ setup.

Camping experience was fine but not up to par with what we usually experience for $50 per night. Although minor because traffic is non existent, sight #4 is angled the wrong way for an rv or camper to back in. No problem, I just turned around on the main road and went the wrong way on the camping loop to back in as every other campground in the nation angles their camp sites. Second issue was our water faucet was buried 18" too shallow and seemingly wasn't frost proof anyways because most mornings it was froze up. Not a huge issue because it would thaw out an hour or two after sunrise and we weren't hooked directly to water anyways. These faucets probably aren't a good choice for the campground as a few sites from us a faucet was leaking all day and we couldn't get it to stop. This group camping/equestrian loop has water and electric. If I'm not mistaken, the main campground by the visitor center only has water.
Otherwise, quiet spot during thanksgiving and great mountain biking, hiking. If you want to do a cave tour book early, it's worth it.

The area was very nice but not having a dump station near by without having to travel the 50 minutes back to the other side of the park due to not being able to cross the ferry in the RV was the only down side. Otherwise the area was well maintained. Also, you have to enter the side of the camping area marked “do not enter” otherwise you wouldn’t be able to back into the site.

Though on recreation.gov reservation website stated no water or electric hook up for group site 4 was pleasantly surprised to have water & electric hook up! Setting is beautiful!!
