By far the most clean and well kept campground we've stayed at. Deena, the camp host, was so helpfull and welcoming during our stay. Even on our way out she gave us a booklet of the NP, some tips on where to go and what to see.It's the small things that really make the difference too. There was soap by the sink in the restrooms. The showers were clean and the water pressure amazing. It looked

We enjoyed our time at the spot we chose. We were disconnected from WiFi, which was what I wanted. There was a very short walk to the river entrance, as well as a 10 minute hike to the nearest convenience store. The convenience store is across from a cute activity area, which has a mini, old-time town built that is interesting to look at. We spent a lot of time in the river and the other campers were very friendly. The camp host provided helpful information via text before arrival and we purchased firewood from her. She was very attentive, always asking if we needed anything, which I appreciated. The things we had trouble with were the meat bees during every meal and in between aggressively flying at our faces and getting into the meals or our plates. A neighbor camper told us he located a large meat bee hive close to the river. Next time, we will bring a meshed canopy, so we can eat in peace. Mosquitoes were a problem too, until we had a consistent citronella candle lit and bug spray on us. There were also some kind of beetles that were attracted to the lights at night and they were on everything the first night.Other than the bugs, there was a train that runs right next to the river and since the campground is also next to the river, the trains loud noise from running through the area at 1:20 a.m. was a little jarring the first night. My husband and grandkids slept right through it the second night though.Overall, we had a great time and made some amazing memories at this campground!

Wonderful ranger named Troy making the rounds! The campground/showers/toilets were kept clean and well managed.

Pulled into the campsite after a beautiful drive through the Plumas National Forest. When we arrived, we saw the camp host was busy, so we waved as we made our way to our campsite. The campsite was super clean and really big. The restrooms were super clean and ... not vault toilets! Woo Hoo! We were a group of three families who all camped next to each other. The river was pretty low when we went, but fishing was possible. Not much beach area though. Pretty soon after getting set up, "Joe", the camp host made his way around. His thick New York accent told us we were in for a treat. He was awesome. He made sure we were comfortable and offered firewood and told us all about the campground and the general store nearby. He talked about the river and made sure we knew where the private property was that bordered the campground. It was obvious he respected the neighbors enough to make sure campers knew where they were.
During our stay, Joe checked in on us regularly, but not in a way that made us uncomfortable. His personality was warm and friendly, so much so we invited him to our potluck dinner on our last night there. His stories were BIG and funny, he was very kind to the kids and left a great impression with us. We look forward to coming back to this campground and seeing Joe again.
