This is a nice remote campground along a beautiful scenic river. Close access to many popular trails. Its main drawback is that since the main road to it is washed out and under reconstruction, one must go the long way around on bumpy dirt logging roads.Due to its remoteness, maintenance at the camp is minimal. The toilet paper gets restocked and the garbage collected, but nonessential things are neglected. My reserved sign at the camp never showed my name. It was updated for the weekend visitors. The roof is damaged on one corner of one restroom, it does not affect the interior.Camps 01-04 are sunny riverside camps. 18,19, and 20 are more forested, on the riverside, but have a steeper access to the river. We could stand on large boulders and watch the salmon swimming in the river. We saw a number of dippers as well.

The outhouse near site #18 has a collapsing roof and should be repaired. There was no campground host. Our site did not have our name displayed, nor was it marked as reserved. This also happened to a camper near us. They went on a hike and came back to find all of their camping gear had been removed from their site and the site marked as open. This is unacceptable!

For fourteen years I have been bringing my dog to camp. This summer was probably his last. This campground is my favorite for car camping. When the river is lower, you can hang in the shallows and in late Spring, everything is fresh and raw from the winter.
The camp host these past few years has been excellent: everything is always clean and ready to go. I really appreciate his efforts!
When the bridge opens after all this time I know everything will change. I never once worried about leaving stuff at camp. Now that access will be so simple, I fear the sense of isolation will be gone forever.
My dog and I have had a good run at Troublesome Creek. We are so fortunate in the Northwest.

Stayed for a couple weeknights at the end of summer. Campground was very secluded and maybe half full (ideal, if you ask me). Site is large with peek-a-boo views of the river, but has its own access to the water down a short trail at the far end of the site. The river is very rocky; but was totally empty, and perfect for a camp chair and a book. I didn't get a good look at the other sites, but I'm fairly certain this is the only one that has this kind of access to the river, therefore making it the best one. Unfortunately, I imagine the surrounding area has since been affected by wildfires, so I'm not sure how this review will hold up.

Absolutely beautiful campground! We reserved campsite 018 and it was large, secluded, surrounded by large trees, close but not too close to the restrooms, and had private access to the river. The proximity of the river provided white noise that drowned out sounds from other campers nearby and was very peaceful for sleep. The river bed was rocky but if you bring camp chairs it would be a great place to sit and read or fish all day. There were a few walking/running trails nearby that we explored briefly that seemed to be pretty quiet for a Sunday. Overall, highly recommend this campgrounds!
