Aspenglen was a beautiful, smaller camping area with easy access from the Fall River entrance. The Rangers and hosts were helpful. We were close to Sheep Lakes and the Aluvial Fan without the traffic of Bear Lake Road. Overall a wonderful experience and we are looking forward to another visit.

Great campground, attentive camp hosts, waives reservation needs for the park. Clean bathrooms, sites were large and level. Wish there were more sites and farther out. We had a site right in the middle of a circle by the bathrooms and it wasn’t very private. No electric.

The D campsite was an amazing walk to spot with the beautiful river behind it. We had two bear boxes which was more than enough and the site was perfect for our tent.

Love this campground! Plenty of shade in our c lot site, outer edges. Bathrooms are very clean, flush toilets and sinks and soap for washing up. Outside sink for rinsing dishes. Fall River is beautiful and runs along the side of the campground, beautiful water sounds at night.

Impeccable campsite, great tent pad (hidden in some trees), clean bathrooms. You can’t ask for much more than that. The staff were also kind and responsive. Make sure to have cash on hand for firewood and ice.

Campsite was clean and bathrooms well maintained. Other campers were quiet and respectful. Hiking trails in the park were extensive. Discovery Museum was very informative. Enjoyed walking the perimeter of Sprague Lake.

Camp hosts were awesome! Ranger was very informative and answered most of our questions. Our tent area campsite was very quiet and was visited by deer, a variety of birds, and chipmunks 😀 Would certainly recommend it!
