Very enjoyable time. Fishing was excellent. Only negative thing I could say is the road in and out was terrible. The folks that take care of the campgrounds that I met were all very nice and shared a lot of information about the area that was much appreciated. I will return.

We enjoyed a late-fall trip to Springer Gulch CG. Site 5 was excellent for our tent trailer and was situated on a south-facing slope outside of the trees, meaning we warmed up fairly quickly in the mornings. There is also a (fairly) level tent pad and a nice picnic table and fire ring. Large trash containers are located at the CG entrance. The site was very clean and the maintenance folks were friendly. There was no on-site host during our stay, but the neighbors were polite and quiet. I read a comment about the rough entrance road (FR 96) but we found it was exceptionally smooth; seemed to have been recently graded.

I wish I could lie and say it was no good to keep people from coming here but this area is fantastic. The campgrounds were good, no one was too loud, friendly people all around. Weekends get busy. Will be back.

Beautiful area! The river fishing was so fun and the camp caretakers Scott & Mike were so friendly and helpful! We enjoyed our conversations with them each day they came around to check on the campsites!
We will be back year after year for sure!

Springer Gulch is nicely tucked back off the main road and was very quiet. We stayed just after school restarted so there were not too many other sites that had campers. It was quiet. The weather and setting were both gorgeous. It is a great place to take first time campers to introduce them to what camping is all about without being too primitive as there are vault toilets.

Pretty campsites that are easy to access. We were in site 2 that is on the road leading to the main campground. This site is more in a meadow so there is plenty of room to spread out. There were a few trees that provided shade and vault toilet close by which was clean. Hiking trails are right there with a short walk to the river. Nice and quiet.
