We love this place. Quiet, well-kept, right on the river, well-maintained. We were in B-20 and there was a serious ant invasion. Great place, but you may want to bring ant protection, at least in B-20.

The campground host provided superb assistance. We didn't have a reservation and she had empty campsites. She gave us the phone number to call and got on there with us to help us complete our reservation. The campground is clean and well kept. The sites are spread out so that everyone isn't crammed together. It's especially good when you are camped next to an RV. Our tent was in the site next to an RV and there was plenty of room between us so we could have privacy and plenty of room to move around. They have showers, but we had just taken one that morning before leaving our hotel, and we didn't have time to shower before leaving the next morning. I glanced into the showers and they looked fine.

Policies & Rules

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.

Local regulations

  • Certain items and activities are prohibited on project lands without written permission from the District Commander.

Fires & fuel

  • Buy firewood locally and burn it on-site to protect forests from pests.

Wildlife & food storage

  • To prevent invasive species at combined facilities, clean your gear, and follow aquatic guidelines for boats.
