Quick access off of the highway. We stayed in the winter (January) so the canyon was extra cold during this time. I imagine it is ideal during the winter. Staff is very friendly. The bathroom is a basic toile over a hole in the ground. No sink available. Staff keeps the grounds maintained. Short distance from town.

Very pretty campground right next to a creek. Traffic noise is real, but does stop at night. One of the campgrounds hosts is pretty abrasive but didn’t impact the trip too much overall!

We liked our campsite #14, but campsites are too close. No privacy from next campsite. Very near the stream. Not too close or too far from the bathroom. Bathroom wasn't as clean as other campsites I've been to. Male host was very nice. When we got there, someone was in our parking stall. Apparantly, people thought our campsites were FCFS, but ours was reservable. So, the people setup camp first before checking with the host or reading the occupant's name on the camp sign. They had to breakdown after realizing the campsite was already reserved,

Absolutely no privacy at all. Not even in my car. Right next to the Highway. So it was not quiet at all. Didn't see any wildlife at all, maybe because of people's dogs. Other than that it was just o.k.

My wife and I absolutely loved our 3 nights at Manzanita. It really felt like a small community, with everyone eager to say hello and share some stories. If you can, get a site by the creek so you can fall asleep and wake up to that pleasant sound. We stayed at #s 11 and 12, which I think are the two best. Enjoy your experience, and take it slow as you approach -- the two entrances really sneak up on you!
