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.

The only negative was that the NPS located a new trash dumpster at site 36 where we were and it was about 15 feet from our trailers door. I’d like to see that relocated.

Great park and amazing place but two problems. Park was built in early 1900's prior to the needs of a 35 foot gooseneck. That park does not fit a trailer that large or larger. Barely got the unit in, left no place for tow vehicle. Also, if you are going to allow travel trailers down there, you should reopen the waste disposal. It's like having are restaurant with no rest room.

Excellent campground though a little congested in the middle of the campground area. Ideally try to get a spot on the perimeter. Do you not worry about getting close to the road because there is very little traffic anyway, especially at night when you're sleeping.
