What Guests Are Saying

Dumont Campground is praised for its stunning scenery, excellent hiking, and proximity to Dumont Lake, making it ideal for outdoor activities like paddleboarding and biking. The campground is clean, well-maintained, and offers large, private sites, although some are not level and may require leveling blocks. While there are challenges such as a lack of drinking water and significant mosquito presence, the overall atmosphere and beautiful wildflowers contribute to a positive camping experience.

Fantastic little campground! Most of the sites are spaced pretty far apart, and the wildflowers are spectacular. The water pump near my site wasn't working, and it was a long walk carrying water buckets. Some sites are in need of leveling. These were minor issues, though. Deer visited several times during my stay, and I watched the osprey hunt in the lake. Dumont is a fabulous little campground!
