What Guests Are Saying
Mogote is highly praised for its clean and spacious campsites, friendly and attentive camp host Sam, and its beautiful natural setting near a river. Many campers enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and well-maintained facilities, including impressively clean bathrooms. However, some reviews noted issues with mosquitoes, particularly in areas near standing water, and suggested that the road conditions and overall infrastructure could use improvement.

Mogote is a very comfortable National Forest campground. The restrooms are always attended to and the host is a one of a kind. He will advise you as to places to visit and is very informative on anything in the area.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Reservations are held until check-out time the day after arrival; no refunds for no-shows.
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.
