The space was nice but there were extremely noisy neighbors blasting music and partying all night. The host did nothing about it. It was far from the peaceful adventure I had hoped for

Other campers were very loud at night after quiet hours, local police were called out to the campground over an incident between groups of campers and the campground hosts were nowhere to be seen during our stay. The campground itself is fine, but we choose to stay at campgrounds rather than boondock for safety and this was the first time in 35 years of camping that I have felt unsafe at night at a campground.

White Spar Campground has been our favorite camping are for 35 years. Unfortunately, for the past two years site maintenance is lacking. Fire pits aren't cleaned out between campers and if any trash is left behind it isn't picked up. Hopefully that issue can be resolved. Otherwise, it's a wonderful location with multiple hiking/biking trails accessible from the campground.

Nice park. The bathrooms and surrounding campsites are not as well maintained as Lynx Lake Campground. The toilet paper in the bathroom ran down to nothing before it was refilled and bathroom cleaned. The fire rings were not cleaned out, leaving the old ashes to blow in the wind. We saw the camp host once in the 8 days we were there.

Campground was 10/10! Camp host? Trash. Rude and not helpful at all and annoyed at us needing assistance. Would recommend avoiding contact if possible.

Boondocking only but toilets available. Very nice campsites. We saw woodpeckers and their storage trees and even a juvenile tarantula! Camp host was very nice. Will go again.

Great camp hosts ❤️💯

Contractor Generators over 60 decibels need to be enforced like NPS does.

Site #4 driveway description is misleading, only 30 ft of driveway is flat for RV, the rest is an incline of 6%or more. Additionally, 2 of the 4 pictures are of the wrong site.
