Stayed at Junction Creek. Camp hosts were very attentive, clean site, clean restroom, and no issues. 3 years back, the lady Camp host drove us nuts trying to be in charge of everything, made out stay miserable and never even cleaned the restroom close to us and also didn’t clean our campsite before we arrived. We didn’t want to come back we’re but glad she’s gone. Beautiful place to relax!

We spent 9 nights at Junction Creek CG and didn’t want to leave. It is clean, well maintained, put toilets aren’t bad. Hosts are friendly and helpful. I wish we lived closer and could visit more often!

The camp hosts were awesome! They're super friendly, eager to provide necessary info, and run a clean campground. We'll be back for sure. Thanks, Junction Creek!

This is a very nice forested campground with sites with electricity available. There is good space between sites. Great fire pits and picnic areas with tables. The toilets are freshly painted and clean. The camp hosts were friendly and helpful! We had Verizon cell phone service throughout our visit. It’s pretty close to town, but you can’t really tell once you’re there. The only negatives are the washboard road on the way into the campground, and that it’s a bit confusing to find your site. There was also a bit of ATV noise one evening.

This is a very no-frills woodsy camping experience. The sites had electricity, which was great. The park hosts were very nice and helpful. There are no bath houses, no water hook ups, and no sewer. Not sure about a dumping station. A Beautiful Park All the way around . Very clean.

Awesome campground given its location. However, the entry road sucks. It is the worst washboard gravel road in any National Forest we’ve camped. Second, the water spigots are low pressure, low volume, not threaded, and not suitable for filling RV tanks. Arrive with FULL water tanks. Also, there is no dump station. Plan ahead, be prepared!
