Online I had checked before we made our reservation that we could have a fire in the fire pit. The temporary restrictions were from July 1st 2021 till December 2021. I had checked the day before our camping trip and made sure nothing had changed and that we still could have a fire in the fire pit, just no charcoal stoves and etc. Drive 2 hours to get there just to find out that they changed the temporary restrictions on July 23rd to having absolutely no fires. We complained and talked to the camp ranger and he even said " that they never ever update the website. " We did not bring no way to cook our food except to do it over the campfire. Big waste of time, money and gas. Also, we had number 8 campsite that was LEGIT RIGHT BY THE FREEWAY. You could hear cars going all night, it was TERRIBLE. We ended up leaving the next afternoon even though we book it for two nights. We only stayed one, so I am looking on how to get a refund for my 2nd night. I would not recommend this campsite at all. Yes it is by a river and if you get one of the sites by the river, I am sure it would of been better. But even sitting super close to the river... I could still hear the cars! I don't mind being out in the middle of nowhere in the forest but how can I atleast enjoy the peace and tranquility of it when I hear cars Going by every second?!?! I could of just done sat on my porch at my apartment in Portland and heard the same exact thing... Super super disappointed with this trip.
