The site was clean and well maintained. The staff that came by to greet us and check our reservation was very friendly and helpful, provided information about checkout time and where to park after checkout for day use. All in all a very pleasant time. The only improvement would be an update to primitive site facilities.

A very beautiful place. The scenery, the campground hosts, the cleanliness of the sites, the other campers. They were all great. The showers were not working. I wish we had known that beforehand. Still, a great place to visit.

We come here every summer for the river hike and it is one of my favorite hikes of all time. It is a lot of scrambling and swimming once you reach the river, so wear your swimsuit and bring a waterproof bag :-)

We stayed at the primitive sites. It was super peaceful with the exception of the rowdy friends i invited to camp with us. They spun an actual dj set! They quieted a bit by 10, so that was cool. Kids had a blast. Shout out to the camp host couple who were super friendly and kept the wood supply coming. Day use area was on point, but stake your spot early on busy weekend. Gorge hike is fire, bring your dry bags and water shoes. Arroyo seco rocks! 5 stars would do again.

Gorgeous campsite, everything was very clean and well marked. Some great trials around the land and the river was so amazing and refreshing after hiking

The campground is beautiful. The regular host was off, but there was a relief host and they were wonderful. Showers and flush toilets were closed. There were port-a-potties, and we were lucky that they were cleaned just before we arrived. Site 14 was great, large and shady. Close to the bathrooms and water.
