June ‘24 was my 3rd summertime trip to Cascade. The campground hosts have all been efficient, though some were more friendly and helpful. In 2020 I camped 5 nights in Site 20. Last year I camped 6 nights in 21. This year I chose Site 18, and stayed 8 days.
They have all been great sites, but 18 was perfect for me. It’s very handy to two restrooms, the water pump, and dumpster. Many don’t like it’s proximity to the road, but I did not find the traffic intrusive, and I was camping solo with a Harley-Davidson and small pop-up, so I was outside at all times. It’s definitely close enough to the creek and Cascade Falls that you can hear it all day and especially at night. One afternoon I had two does show up on my site momentarily, before they saw me and scampered across the road to the safety of Chalk Creek. I had plenty of shade, but also had good morning sun on the site to recharge my solar battery which powers a CPAP machine, plus the little things.
I highly recommend Cascade!

Beautiful wooded campground. Close to St. Elmo ghost town - 6.5 mi uphill bike ride. Things were very tidy. Jake, the campground host, was great and helpful.
Be aware, the water source is a hand pump and not suitable for filling an RV.

Loved the location and our particular site was perfect! Private and secluded. Loved how close it is Mt Princeton, and St Elmo.
Campsites and bathrooms are clean and the views are incredible.

This is a gorgeous campground - and quiet! We loved it! Just the drinking water looked suspicious after you worked to get it out of the well.
