What Guests Are Saying
Sentinel Campground offers a beautiful setting with spacious, shaded sites and proximity to the river, making it ideal for hiking and outdoor activities. Many visitors appreciate the serene atmosphere and the campground's access to nearby amenities, such as the store and ranger programs. However, the facilities, particularly the restrooms, are in disrepair and require maintenance, which detracts from the overall experience.

We always love the beauty of the Cedar Grove area. Our only disappointment is that funding for our National Parks has dwindled so that services (such as the store) and ranger shows are not available until at least Memorial Day, and we understand that some services, etc., may not be available until much later than that.

Amazing campground. We were on site 55 and let me tell you, the view every morning was amazing. We left our tent facing the meadow and it was wonderful. My wife and I enjoyed our time here.

Sentinel is simply amazing. Quiet, the people who are there are generally respectful, the location is beautiful…I could go on. Just a wonderful campground. We didn’t want to leave.

Best camp spot! Close to clean bathrooms. Nice flat tent pad. Clean bear box, table. Lots of wood to burn a fire. Ranger walks by daily so you feel safer. Some noise on weekend nights; parties.
