Very clean and maintained camp sites. We have been there a couple of times and have never been disappointed. Plenty of hiking there and nearby. Great wildlife viewing.

We have camped at Sharp Creek many times. The reason is that the sites are big, lots of trees, vault toilets are always clean, and a quiet surrounding. We have taken other campers with us to Sharp Creek and they agree that this is a very nice campground.
Thank you for keeping good work campers there who take care of their grounds.

This is a great campground with ample spacing and placement of sites to give you some privacy. The location is 10 min from the top of the rim and the 300 rd turn off, so its close to all of the fishing and outdoor activities the Rim has to offer. It is also about 2 minutes from Christopher Creek where there are a couple of restaurants and some services. It is a hidden Gem

The camp hosts were excellent last year. Too many dogs barking is the only negative.
