Camp hosts, Steve and Cash, are frequently praised for their friendliness and attentiveness, enhancing the overall stay. While some campsites are close together, the well-maintained facilities, stunning river views, and excellent hiking trails make it a favorite for many visitors.

Pros - 1.) The RIVER! There are multiple great swimming spots and you can hear the running water anywhere in camp. 2.) The bathrooms were clean and smelled good! 3.) The hosts were also very kind and gave good local recommendations.
Cons - Only 1.) Our reserved site #14 was very close to the neighboring sites. We moved to the open FCFS #12 spot that was luckily available, otherwise we would have been very uncomfortable with the space provided at #14.

I love this campground- I’ve visited here multiple times now as a solo camper and with others. There are no bad campsites and you can hear the river from each one. Hosts are incredibly nice. No service, but there is a small town nearby (downieville) if you need to reach someone. Bathroom is well maintained, dumpster is onsite too. Great hiking trails nearby with tons of shade. Make sure to bring mosquito and tick spray. I plan on continuing to visit this site and be there again very soon.

A great campsite pretty far away from highway noise. The camp host has firewood to sell which is super convenient. Very well maintained vault toilets and don't really smell much. Lots of mosquitos, so bring bug spray.

We had a beautiful site right next to the river. It was so peaceful. The stars were amazing! Hosts were very helpful and friendly.
