This is the worst campground I have ever been to. DO NOT CAMP HERE. There are a number of problems with it, one there are no signs marking the group camp, nothing stating it is a reserved site. When we arrived there were random people using the group site for a picnic. There are 7 parking stalls for the campground, all of them were taken up by day use people, as again there is no signage anywhere stating this is a group site and the parking stalls are reserved. This campground is located a solid distance from the water and day use area, and people who parked further away used the campsite as a short cut which is incredibly off putting. The group camp only has one bathroom and one trash can, and when we arrived a little after check in time, both were found to be unusable. The bathroom was horrendously filthy, absolutely disgusting and downright unsanitary. The trash was overflowing with garbage, with mounds of trash all around it.
If anyone wants to know how nasty the bathrooms were, the photos are up under the Google review for this campground.
The photos online are of the day use area, NOT THIS CAMPGROUND.

Do not come here for camping.
This is a very nice place for daily use. But if you want to stay overnight, this place is not safety.
No camp host at site. Gate does not close at 8pm like description. No one answer the camp site phone.
This camp site is a scam

We could not stay in Bridal Veil Falls because we did not feel safe due to personnel issues they were having. The regional supervisors (Jean and her husband were so accommodating. They had us come just 10 miles up and found a space for us next to the river. They did this without asking and were gracious hosts. The person from the office Megan was wonderful as well as they refunded our money. Things don't always go as planned but your people really stepped up to make this right. Thank you!

This place was beautiful, the only complaint I would have is that the day I arrived the place was so packed that people were walking through our campsite and there was no parking space available for my group. Other than that, the camp host (David) was very friendly, the place was clean and the river was a short walk away
