What Guests Are Saying

The South Fork Group Site offers a quiet and spacious location near the river and trails, ideal for groups. While some visitors noted the lack of shade and the presence of a nearby mine's conveyor noise, these issues did not affect everyone. Improvements are needed for picnic tables and bathroom maintenance, as they can become crowded with passing visitors.

Quiet and not crowded. A mine nearby has a conveyer belt that others said you can often hear, but we didn’t hear it

Excellent location and plenty of space for our group. We loved being right next to the river and trails. Note: there is very little shade at the group site so tent shades are helpful.

Some cons: Picnic tables need repaired/replaced and bathrooms needed cleaning/trash emptied. Unfortunately it was a stopping point for people in the area needing to use a bathroom and the trash filled quickly.
