Beautiful campground! In the early autumn, on a Sunday night, we shared the entire campground with only three other camping groups. Spring water from a pipe tasted amazing. A lovely, peaceful getaway.

Love how close it is to the river

Beautiful, peaceful location, big campsites, many border the river water holes are incredible and so much fun! We go every year. You can bring your pup on a leash. Minimal amenities: potable drinking water and pit toilets; take mosquito repellant.

This is a wonderful place for those who want to enjoy a peaceful environment. Small campground, friendly host, and a beautiful setting.

The camp host is great. Always good to reconnect with her. The campground is our utter favorite

Super awesome site! The swimming hole is stunning! Crystal clear and beautiful with rocks to jump from and water falls. The hike there is pretty easy but not accessible for any sort of wagons, strollers, wheel chairs or anything like that. But totally doable with just a backpack or just a water bottle. Only other thing is that the campsites are close together but its still a great site. Big sites and potable water and fire ring with a grill on it. Bathrooms and bear boxes :) Will be going again.

Five stars for the campground and location. Two stars for the other campers and general upkeep.The location was gorgeous, the campgrounds were spacious, and the bear lockers were huge. The sad part was the amount of litter and leftover food in the firepit from prior campers and in the creek. The first neighbors also left a few things after they departed, so my partner and I cleaned up both campsites a bit. The second night, there was a party with loud music and people. And by night, I mean 2-3 AM. Not much could be done without cell service or courage to confront the group.I'd still go back despite the drawbacks.

Wonderful campground. Far enough from the main roads to be quiet, just small enough to feel uncrowded. Short hike to an idyllic waterfall swimming hole.

What a gem of a site! Small campground with vault toilets and a natural spring with the freshest potable drinking water.
This was our second year back, and we camped right next to the river. Such a picturesque location and the trailhead at the back of the loop leads to a gorgeous swimming hole / waterfall.
During October you may hear occasional gunfire during daylight hours as hunting season for that location is open.
