Camping along the McCloud River is a wonderful experience! The scenery is gorgeous and the River Trail is one of the best you can find anywhere. The campground is well kept and it’s like staying in the amusement park all day.

Nice place to stay for 1-2 nights. All 3 beautiful waterfalls are located not so far, wild animals (deer, chipmunks) walk around the camp. No shower and wash basins.

This is the first year that Fowlers has been anything but excellent for us. Fowlers is a nice campground with a great location on the river but it needs to be managed more closely given the number of campers and day trippers who visit.

The area is beautiful, campsites with a good sturdy table & walking distance to all the waterfalls. The bathrooms didn’t have much toilet paper (at least 1 toilet out of TP every day) and our neighbors had really really barky dogs that lunged after people walking on nearby paths. There was no camp host or ranger to talk to. Also FYI - there was a bear meandering the campsites one of the nights.

The location and proximity to hiking and waterfalls (which were overflowing with water) was great. The bathrooms often lacked toilet paper and were not clean. There was no camp host when we camped there in June 2023, so you had to travel to McCloud to get firewood. Had some noisy neighbors that allowed their dogs to continuously bark. This behavior went unchecked because there was no one monitoring the campgrounds in any fashion.
