What Guests Are Saying
Kirch Flat Group Campground is a spacious and quiet site, conveniently located 75 yards from a beautiful river, offering ample picnic tables and grills. While the cleanliness of the restrooms was noted as inconsistent, most guests found the vault toilets to be clean. Caution is advised due to poison oak and swift river currents, but many enjoyed their stay and appreciated the peaceful surroundings.

Kirch Flat camp grounds is a really nice camp group. My one star is regarding my group camp site reservation. I was lockout of the site because 1. I wasn't aware that I would be provided lock code.
2. Because of no internet in the area of Kirch Flat, I didn't have access to more information that would have told me of the needed code. Needless to say I paid for a reservation that I couldn't use. Thankfully we we're able to use an uninhibited campsite and adjusted to our limited space and had a great time!

The work they have done is amazing. Huge fit pit with benches around it. Several bear boxes. Many many benches and a nice long line of tables for food.
