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.

Lovely campsite right next to the river, lots of space and could watch the deer drinking from the river every afternoon. Very peaceful.

No light in the bathrooms. No showers. No breakfast service at the lodge. Pay phones are a ripoff. Park staff was a bit ignorant of trails. Stayed in campsite 19. It was probably the best site in the campground. It was large with lots of distance from other sites. It backed on the river. Very pleasant.

Site #76 is excellent for tent camping, location to the Rae Lakes Loop trailhead is very good for an early morning departure. Campground facilities are very good and if you need the comforts of home... well, the Cedar Grove Lodge, mini-mart, and restaurant is a short walk/drive away. Two thumbs up!

Park rangers were really nice and helpful. Park was clean. Some visitors didnt really care about bears/wildlife and the fire danger, but maybe that's the american way of camping.
