It was a nice campground. We definitely need a good winter. It did rain once while we were there which was amazing! I definitely think they need bear containers. We’re tent campers and felt uncomfortable keeping our food out!
The sites are spacious. The bathrooms were ok.

There was no fresh water available. It would have been good to get a message about this before we arrived as we had to scramble to buy more water. Also, nothing was posted in the campground, we just saw the spouts covered.

Campsite was good; we were close to a bald eagle nest. However, on our trip, the potable water had been contaminated so we needed to bring in our own. Bathrooms and showers (in neighboring Honker Cove) were clean and neighboring campers were respectful of quiet times.

The On-Site Hosts Linda and Kathy were very helpful and pleasant. Laurel the Site Manager was an excellent resource for information on the Pluma Recreation Area.

Arrival & departure
- Check-in is at 2:00 PM, and check-out is at noon.
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.
