We love this campground but the bathroom situation last weekend was what made our experience a lot more negative than usually. The Mollie B bathrooms were closed due to not enough water in the well. The bathrooms at Little Maud were also closed for some obscure reason. We have 2 kids who would not make it to the marinas bathrooms before having an accident, unless we drove. Not a good situation. I would expect to get an email warning before my trip. (I did receive a general email a few days before with no mention of the bathroom situation) I would have brought a bucket if I had known.

Last weekend the Nicole, the camp host was double booking the sites. She took a reservation from our friends and sold it to us. She then said she didn't have any change for 2 $20-bills. After we paid her our other friends went to pay her and she said she didn't have change for their $100 bill. She's a crook and so rude to top it off. The campers at the site next to us had an open fire burning in their fire pitt and the White River was under a strict no burn but she did nothing about it.

The campgrounds were very clean. Campsite hosts were nice but not super proactive. There was a VERY loud group of young people partying with music until after 1am right in the middle of the campground and the camp hosts did nothing. That was frustrating. My site was small with no shade, which wasn't ideal. But the proximity of the reservoir made this campground desirable. I would just stay at a different site next time.

Policies & Rules

Arrival & departure

  • Reserved sites must be occupied by 11:00 AM the day after arrival to avoid forfeiture.
  • Check-in is at 2:00 PM and check-out is at 11:00 AM; guests must leave on time.
  • Contact customer service at 801-226-3564 or Help.WhiteRiver.Sopris@AmericanLL.com for assistance.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
