This quiet campground is close to many amazing trails. The on site attendant is very helpful and keeps the place clean.

My boys and I had the most magical experience! The campground is nestled next to Silver Creek, which leads to two beautiful waterfalls and offers plenty of great hiking spots. The host, Gunny, was absolutely wonderful—so hospitable and welcoming. He checked in with everyone daily, which was especially helpful since there’s limited service and sometimes you just need an extra hand, like getting water for the campfire. My boys loved when he came around—it added to the fun of our stay. This was such a special way to spend time together before the school year began. We’d definitely recommend this spot and look forward to going back!

Enjoyed a relaxing and peaceful week at Silver Creek Campground. Our site ( #10) was clean and the campground was as well. The host “Gunny” was welcoming and helpful and we enjoyed visiting with him during our stay.
Our trailer is self contained and we had a full tank of water but it would be nice if the campground had water available.
We will be back again next year.

Beautiful area . Camp host Gunny was stellar. Drove through several sites to find the one best for us.
Water would be nice.

Gunny was an excellent source of information about the area and soothed our concerns by answering our questions and letting us know what we needed to know. Site 15 was great! Good tree coverage, ample space for 2 campers, and enough of a gap between sites that we felt comfortable and could enjoy the sounds kf nature. The trail up to the waterfall was short and outlined by logs. The path down to the river was steep in some places, but calming when you get there. Worth a visit!

Wonderful place to camp. Gorgeous creek and wonderful camp host created nice trails to access different points of the creek. Kid friendly and a lot to see and do off of highway 4. No cell service, no water, so plan accordingly.
