We love this campground! Always clean, well taken care off. The Hosts are so helpful and kind. There is so much to do there! The walking trails lead right to the Interpretive Center at the Dam, which is a fun family activity!

My first time visiting Downstream. Linda was in the entrance building and assisted me with getting online to sign in for the campsite. I found the area very clean, well managed, and to my surprise, very few people were camping there. I was impressed with the staff, location, and for sure, it is a hidden gem.

Stopped in without a reservation but were able to phone to get a site even though it was about 7pm. Very nice campground by the pond and river. Paved roads and pads.

Lovely spot on the lake. Clean, quiet and pretty. Short drive from hwy as we drive cross country.

The campground is beautiful and well maintained. The walking trail is wonderful. The ladies at the front gate were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our visit.
@RichardC284688 · Camped on Sep 20, 2025 at Campsite #36
Large spacious sites that allow for a small amount of privacy. Nice and quiet while we were there in September.
@JamieS2917031 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #69

@SteveT7934674 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #9
Clean restrooms and grounds. Exceptionally helpful volunteer staff at the booth.

Downstream Campground I the fall is the best. Things are quieter, and usually the weather isn't so brutal. We went twice after Labor Day this year.
@BrettP537A7FED · Camped on Sep 11, 2025 at Campsite #4
Always a great campground
@RichardS712869 · Camped on Sep 11, 2025 at Campsite #82
We enjoyed our 1 night stay. Very nice and quiet RV park. Do bring bug spray.
@ShannL7DBFBB8B · Camped on Sep 9, 2025 at Campsite #82
Great customer service, both on the phone and in person. Knowledgeable employees. Clean facilities and generously sized campsites.
@BryanM7662998 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #3
Beautiful spot, very well maintained. Lots of hiking trails, and disc golf available right in the park. RV sites are level and good spacing for privacy.
@TravisC3562214 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #68
Perfect experience. Tent camping in September. Excellent showers and toilets.
@ConnieH6529464 · Camped on Sep 8, 2025 at Campsite #21
Lots of room, well laid out.
@EricS9323236 · Camped on Sep 7, 2025 at Campsite #22
Very nice park. I think the showers and toilets were the cleanest I have ever seen at a campground.
@DeanC5469970 · Camped on Sep 6, 2025 at Campsite #2
This campground was really a pleasant surprise on our trip. The person that checked us in was extremely friendly and he provided us with a lot of interesting and useful information about the park and the surrounding area. We would definitely stay there again.My only negative comment would be about the roads leading into the area from the south. They were in terrible condition and badly in need of repair...
@BarryK7BC5E25E · Camped on Sep 6, 2025 at Campsite #28
Very nice setting right on the Missouri River and behind the Fort Peck Dam, large trees for shade and extra large sites. Bathrooms and showers were clean and well taken care of. Nice walking/biking trails, fishing ponds and of course Fort Peck Reservoir. Paved flat sites, our was a back in with plenty of room, we didnt have to unhook. Would definitely stay again.
@ANTHONYHA7BCC6 · Camped on Sep 4, 2025 at Campsite #1
Great place. Quiet and friendly people. Very convenient if you are fishing at the lake. Cleanest bathrooms and showers in any campground around.
@GuadalupeCC4EE · Camped on Sep 2, 2025 at Campsite #45
The site were okay, not crowded next to each other. Showers and restrooms were clean. The really down side was the hundreds of flies, bugs and mosquitoes.
@AllenT5449238 · Camped on Sep 2, 2025 at Campsite #4
Love the park and the hostess. The only that could make it better would be to have water to the sites.
@JohnCDFDD519B4 · Camped on Sep 2, 2025 at Campsite #28
Nice and quiet, and clean. A very good value for the cost!

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
