Springer Gulch is a very beautiful canyon with nice hiking trails around it. I'm not much of a fly fisherman but there were numerous people fishing the river. Caution there are bears in the canyon.

Just what I was looking for......Peace and Quiet. Stayed at campsite 014, be aware if you are camping from an RV the parking site is shared with 013. Excellent stay within walking distance to excellent fishing. Since I was camping from a motorcycle (street bike) my only issue was a rough entry road that was 7 miles long, and took 20 minutes to navigate. Toilet is 75 yards from site and water is 100.

Great campground! My husband and I enjoyed our time here very much and we’re happy to be able to have a camp fire. It’s a short walking distance away from the river and a great place to bring your dog. Hope to come back soon!

Tent only_site 8 was a little tight with the 8 person tent, but the site was perfect for kids once we got set up. Nice little rock face to climb and mess around with. Small campground, was super quiet at night. Will return in the future, but will try and grab site #9.

Beautiful views. Campground is a short walk to the river where we could hang out and kids play in the water. These sites are crazy close to each other and there is no privacy. We also had people coming thru our site from dispersed camping on the back of the mountain. No onsite camp host so it felt like a free for all at times. Also not a good place if you have a trailer bigger than a pop up, many sites barely had room to park. Would have been great if the site were not on top of one another.

This is a breat campground for a weekend trip. The road is narrow and bumpy to beware if you are brining a small trailer or pop up. We have a 20 ft Airstream and were able to squeeze it into our spot. There is a lot to do in the area including hiking, swimming in the river, fly fishing, rock climbing and more.

Great setup, campsite, views, fishing. The host was very helpful. We had a great time. Rained every afternoon, but things dried out quickly.
