It was a nice surprise. Very clean and lots a trails you can hike on. Some of us are not true campers, so we enjoyed the fact that we’re within driving distance to grab a morning cup of coffee or other food items. Lots of picture opportunities, a fire pit to gather around & a grill to cook. We had an amazing time!

The bathrooms are always well kept. They even cleaned our fire pit while we were away hiking. The place is taken care of by the Trust so well. It is a treat to visit there.

My high school class had an amazing time at Rob Hill Campground. They hiked down to the beach, went for a night hike to "Spire," and played games in the camp's field. We want to come back next year!

There are benefits to camping in the city; we Doordashed extra firewood when we ran out and it arrived in a few minutes.

Very expensive for what it offers. In addition, while the reservation system presents the campground as full, the campground was almost empty most of the days we stayed there. We felt really uncomfortable and preferred to spend the nights in our car as Rob Hill is really close to the city and thus accessible to anyone. The restrooms were clean and in general the place is clean and well taken care of.

The site was perfect for our family gathering. There are no showers in this campground, the bathrooms are well cleaned and maintained. our site was close to the bathrooms which made it very easy for the little ones and the old folks. Very beautiful location and trail walks to do. The difficult part is the hauling of all our gear to the parking lot, which isn't very far and the wagon barrels provided was useful. We will definitely come back!

Wonderful campground with great sink/wash up facilities and nice bathrooms. Cars can't get too close to the campsite though so it is a ~200 yard walk up a hill to the campground. There were wheelbarrows to use, but kids were using them to play.
