I reserved four sites for our family. We had a 30 foot fifth wheel, a 22 foot trailer, two Cabover campers pulling jeeps. Everyone commented on how nice a campground it was. The campsites are well spaced, with privacy. The showers and restroom facilities were clean. The staff was exceptionally helpful and welcoming. We will be there again!

Such a perfect spot to stay for a night or two. Be prepared for mosquitoes, and wear river-appropriate footwear if you don’t want to slip all over the rocks at the river! We will definitely camp here again, and hope that all campers treat this area with love and respect. The Smith River is something special.

We found human excrement in our camp site but has an otherwise good experience. Pretty spot. River access wasn't great.

Very clean and beautiful campground. The host was very nice and kept things quiet after 10pm. Showers were hot with good pressure. Bring quarters. We could hear the river all day and night. Decent swimming hole at the river.

Location was amazing! So close to Jedediah (a must see) and an amazing calm past of the river right next door to splash in. Nice and quiet as well.

Came here on a fishing trip with kids. Camp host helpful, campground is in good shape, and close to river. However access to campgrounds can be blocked by forest service maintenance staff without notice. They work at a *very* casual, relaxing pace...while blocking the only road in and out. After waiting a while, we decided to back out to the entrance and back into our campsite.
The same lazy maintenance staff lady comes around after another 15 minutes of blocking the only road in and identifies as a "federal agent" and makes all kinds of threats with the kids watching. So be warned of the USFS employees we encountered in this local area are lazy AF and on power trips to flex on campers that they're "federal agents".
No thanks, we can stick to camping at NPS and BLM where employees are down to earth...not this USFS b.s. it would be like camping at FBI property with the way these forest service employees act. Take your "federal" bs and flush it we will not come back
