Great campground. Nice layout. Sites are mostly all well shaded. Good access to water. Clean pit toilets. Location is good for both small creek fishing, Taylor River C&R area, with public access to the Taylor just down the road a short bit.

Signage was not good. Couldn't find different loops, no maps coming in. I camped in the wrong spot it turns out which was super close to another and not a very relaxing experience. Maybe the site I was supposed to be in would have been better.

While the site was beautiful, we had an unfortunate experience with the hosts. Vera and Rich were unreasonable and unaccommodating. Upon arrival, hosts stated there were only 2 cars and 2 tents allowed at each site, despite this not being indicated on the website or confirmation. Our group was able to secure a second site and paid for the additional vehicles, which Vera tried to overcharge us for and had to be asked to check the math multiple times. As the limit on tents was not indicated until after arrival, our group was not able to plan accordingly. Our group explained this to the hosts and asked permission to put up a third tent on one of our sites. Rather than walking to our site to assess the situation, the hosts opted to call their manager stating they had “argumentative young people.” Their manager arrived shortly and confirmed we were able to have 3 tents as were within the designated space.

This place is amazing. A bit out of the way, but worth it. Huge sites and incredible night sky views. No dump station on site is the only thing you must keep in mind. Had a grey fox wander onto our site while stargazing. So cool!

We've been coming to Lottis Creek for years. Very enjoyable. The camp host at Union was very nice and helpful. We use to get water at the entrance of the campground but for the last two years we couldn't access it because you have to have an adapter to get water. WHY would that be. Our Host wasn't given the adapter. And can you answer a question about why there is no water at One mile campground.

Our campsite was clean and well maintained. The toilets couldn’t have been cleaner!! Our hosts, Tamara and Robert Rains, were like old friends by the time we left. So welcoming and accommodating to our large group. A really nice camping experience.
