Had a wonderful time. Nice shaded campsite near the restroom and trash. A lot of things to do. A lot of bear activity so keep food in food lockers.

Sheep Creek Campground offers beautiful scenery, well-maintained sites, and a peaceful atmosphere, particularly enjoyed for its proximity to the river and hiking trails. Many campers appreciated the quiet nights and spacious campsites, although some reported issues with noise from neighboring sites and restroom cleanliness. Overall, visitors had a delightful experience, with several expressing a strong desire to return despite minor inconveniences.

Our family really enjoyed our time at the campground and the creek. However, the crowd that kept shouting bear during the night was outputting.

The campground is fine, some sites are aways from the car pad. The river and canyon are gorgeous. The campground administration is a bit off. The concessionaire was slow to clean the restrooms (they were discussing for over 24 hours) and the park service does not post what is reserved and what is open. This is likely because there is no camp host. Park service employees come around a day or two into your stay to check you in. What if someone takes your reserved site - no one to talk to.

The most beautiful place we've visited, bears included, was a peaceful spot, far from devices, surrounded by beautiful trees and a river.

Reservation system worked great. Our site, #16, had room for three tents. It was 95 degrees each day we were there, but from our site it was a short walk along the bike trail to a clear path that led down to a nice swimming hole on the river. We were very happy to have brought a pop-up shade to cover the bear box, which otherwise would have been in constant strong sun. A young bear visited us almost daily at 3 p.m., and the 5-mile hike (each way) to Mist Falls is a must-do Overall, we loved the area.

They created an artificial unavailablity with the showers by requiring tokens to shower. Showers should have been free with the stay, or at the very least easily purchased

Very nice campground. A lot of campsites. After driving one hour in pitch dark. Surrounded by other campsites with people give a sense of security

Loved the proximity to the river! Very peaceful and serene. Be prepared for lots of wildlife though, we had multiple bear encounters and a rattlesnake by the bear box. Can’t wait to go back!
