Camp host this year was…interesting and a bit rude…also didn’t fill the toilet paper the whole time we were there. But the area is always so nice so will be back regardless.

The site was clean and ready to go for us. Good spots next to the river. The walk in sites are secluded and easy to get to. The host introduced himself and had firewood for sale. Would love to go back!

Site 5 is beautiful, right next to the water. There wasn't much shade during the day so make sure to bring a canopy. Camp host is located down the way at Ansel Watrous in case you need firewood. You get 1 parking spot free, $8 per night for an extra vehicle.

Wonderful Campsite. We paid $765 to hold 7 of the 9 spots for 4 days. Camphost was great. But hordes of non-paying day visitors invaded the area all weekend. Host had to clean the bathrooms everyday. People walking their dogs and pooping on our campsites all weekend. Highly annoying fly fisherman all over the place. All the fish are caught & dead. Trespassers fishing for hours right in front of our paid campsite. They used our site for free. Need to put up more signs. There are two day use areas within a mile, but day users own Stove Prairie. Need at least a dozen signs clearly saying that if you did not pay a fee, do not stop here. Tried to tell the invaders but they took over anyways. Maybe cones and barriers with signs? Other people took our spots before we set up tents. Can I get a refund?
