Average... Easy trail from campsite to Rampart Reservoir, ok access but a little tight. Very stinky toilets prohibited most outdoor activity around campsite. We won't book this one again.

I have stayed here several times (five or six) this year. The camp hosts were awesome folks and I always enjoyed seeing them when I returned. The campsites were always clean, as were the vault toilets. The hike down to the reservoir is always a treat, but you should stretch it out east or west and enjoy more woodsy fun.

We love Meadow Ridge. We have camped here many times. The seclusion of the campground, the nice separation between sites.

The only downside to our experience was they say you can’t bring in your own firewood then they didn’t have any to buy. It would have been nice to know that before getting there.

The host was very friendly and helpful, and greeted us as soon as we arrived. The campsite was great, and the bathrooms were clean. No complaints at all we enjoyed the isolation and the quiet of this campground.

The campground was very clean, our hostess was friendly, our campsite was close to the portable water as well as the restroom, no horrible smell.
Maybe they could lower the price of the firewood.
Other than mother nature giving us evening showers we had a nice time.
