Dear Forest Service/Campground Management,I'm reaching out regarding a recurring concern at Salmon Cove Campground. Over the past several camping seasons, Ive noticed an increasing number of people ignoring the locked or closed gate and walking directly through our reserved site while we are camping. Ive had to personally stop and remind several individuals that they are trespassing on a paid campsite.One of the main reasons I reserve this site is for the privacy it offers, and these repeated intrusions significantly diminish the camping experience. I respectfully request that the Forest Service consider installing a sign near the gate or entrance, reminding others not to enter active campsitesespecially when the site is clearly reserved.Even a simple sign stating something like "Do Not Enter Active Campsite in Use" or "Private Reserved Site, No Public Access" could help reduce these disruptions. I have several upcoming camping dates this year and, if necessary, will bring my own sign in the meantime.Thank you for your attention to this matter and for helping protect the quality of the experience at Salmon Cove.Sincerely,Craig

It would be nice to have NEW TABLES for the price you pay.

This campground was perfect for our small gathering of families. The privacy and open space was loved by the kids and who doesnt like their own private section of river!? The campsite was very clean and the surrounding forest is healthy!!! There were a lot of ants but they kept to themselves.

Wonderful group campsite with plenty of space for several large RV's/Trailers. Lots of hiking trails in the area with great views. Chinook Pass is just a few miles up the road with great hiking trails and views of Mt. Rainier. There are several trails much closer to camp that I found to be exceptionally easy even for those that don't hike much. Ants are noticable due to several ant mounds in the area but they didn't bother us much. Bugs weren't terribly bad but then again, you're in the woods, I would expect to see them. Just bring some "Off" and you should be fine. You can dump your trash at Hells Crossing Campground just down the road about a mile.

Lastly; noticed some trash along HWY 410. Please be respectful and don't litter along the roads.

Waters down/upstream from camp are closed to fishing typically from mid July to mid September.

We think the main campsite needs a better fire ring & a shelter. We were concerned as people had built fire in the road with no rocks around them, left their fires smoking, & burned glass bottles in the fire pit

It was a great experience, however the toilet paper does not turn on the bar.

Great hiking opportunities, restroom was clean and multiple sites to pick from. We have a 34 foot trailer and had no problems accessing the campground.
