Well spaced sites, clean and neat campsites, clean and neat bathrooms and shower facilities! Laundry was a plus! Spectacular location for people who like to walk/hike

Staying at big meadows is great. It seems like people mostly only stay a night or two by my mom and I enjoyed 8 nights at this campground. There is so much hiking to do in the area. Just hanging out at our campsite we saw so much wildlife, deer, fawns, owls! Mid week was nice and quiet, Friday and Saturday nights were incredibly busy and load. It was hard to get to use the bathroom and sinks during Friday evening and Saturday due to the volume of people. We were very happy once the weekend crowd passed. We loved our campsite and hope to be back someday. This trip was so amazing and I will never forget the memories I made on this trip!

Even tho it rained every night, we still had a most enjoyable time. We saw many deer (buck, does and fawns) and turkey. Big Meadow Campground was much as I remembered it from 20 years ago.

Wonderful, family-friendly campground. Lots of activities, trails, and the lodge food was good. A $5 shower was a bit much, considering all of the other fees, but its a beautiful and clean National Park.

Excellent base from which to explore hiking trails and scenic overlooks. Weather in early November can a challenge, but we had some great sunny days and were glad not to fight crowds. The lodge was our respite for meals when the wind and rain made cooking impossible.

The fire pit was very close to the picnic table. We smoked ourselves out!

Beautiful campground with nice sites and clean facilities. One complaint I have is a family had 2 German Shepherds that barked a lot.
