Manzanita.

Awesome campground. Very small, quiet, tent only, so no hearing loud RV generators. We could hear oak creek from our tent making a nice peaceful, beautiful stay

Great Camp Host! Sites clean and well kept! Caught some fish too! Beautiful spot!

Such an amazing place! My family and I will definitely be back. We enjoyed waking up to the sounds of the creek and birds every morning. The cars can be a little noisy but for location and everything else offered at this camp ground, the cars are easy to tune out. Camp host were awesome and the place was very pet friendly. I used to come here with my grandparents 20 years ago and it was the same beautiful place I remember.

When I made the reservation for Memorial Day Weekend almost 6 months in advance the site was reservation for Monday - Thursday and First Come First Serve for the weekend. When we arrived at the site on Thursday for our reservation I was told that the campground reservation had changed and was now all reservation based and all the FCFS sites were full. This was a HUGE inconvenience for my family and I who just drove 8 hours with a toddler expecting to spend the weekend on the river. We then had to pack up our entire camp after a short night and find a new place to stay during 90+ degree weather on a holiday weekend! It is completely unacceptable that no notice was given to people who already had reservations at the campsite or even a courtesy email from Recreation.gov. This experience really made me rethink all further reservations I make on this site.

All that said - the campground host was awesome and very helpful despite the awful change to the campground made by Recreation.gov.

Overall it was a great trip. Been to this campground many times. I do have a couple issues this time around. There aren’t supposed to campers/trailers allowed and rules clearly state a tent must be onsite yet there was a Winnebago and had the generator running so the noise was very annoying. Our group had 3 sites reserved and this caused us to have 2 extra cars. We had to park them up top which we expected and had no issue with until the hosts allowed another camper and car to park in the bathroom area which isn’t even a campsite.
Aside from this we love this place and it is our favorite place to camp so it’s unfortunate we had to deal with the noise and car issue. I would still recommend this place to others and we will be back for sure. Hopefully next time the hosts follow the rules as we are expected to.
