Chapman is a great campground, especially, but not exclusively, for families. The reservoir is close and great fun for SUPs and fishing and hanging. The nature trail is a fairly easy walk too. Bathrooms were clean.

Don’t come this place is too full and you wont like it. Plus it is my favorite spot and I want to make sure I can get a site.

Wonderful views and location. Wasn’t upset with the number of people that were there. The water well pressure was lower than I hoped and a little dirtier than I expected, but was running whenever I needed it and was drinkable. We will come back to enjoy Chapman!

Such a beautiful place! Most of the sites have plenty of shade but are also quite spacious. We camped right on the river and while our neighbors were kind of close, it really didn't feel like it because of all of the trees. Would highly recommend and plan to return!

We stayed in sites 40 and 34 in the North campground over Memorial Day weekend 2021. It was an incredible experience. First, the camp hosts, Rob and Karen, were so friendly and accommodating. They keep the campground perfectly clean, especially the pit toilets. They were the cleanest we’ve ever experienced. They take great pride in their work! They try to make the campers experience as they would live for themselves. The CG is scenic, reservoir is a great place to kayak. We also hiked up to Chapman lake. It is a 7.5 mi hike from the CG trailhead which is on the south side. We would highly recommend the hike (steep but doable).
