W.P. Franklin campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly staff, making it a favorite for many visitors. The serene river surroundings and well-spaced sites offer a relaxing atmosphere for fishing and enjoying nature. However, concerns about excessive speed bumps and some strict monitoring by hosts were noted, with suggestions for improvement on these aspects.

The two volunteers that manage the site were fantastic. We had a broken awning and Andrew got us in contact with someone who can fix it. A shout out for Andrew who was very helpful. Thanks for all your hard work.

Great campground with large sun filled sites. Clean showers and facilities. The host Andrew was rude on multiple occasions to campers and day use visitors. Hosts should be welcoming not stalking campers for no good reason.

Andrew, CG Host, came to my rescue when a day use fishing family “, parked in my campsite. He tracked them down & had them move to day use parking. Andrew is a hero!
