Big Scrub Campground

The first two times I visited this campground, I enjoyed the experience. There were very friendly camp hosts that kept the place in good working order. Unfortunately, my third trip to this place was anything but enjoyable.

The buildings all have broken windows, and busted doors. There are no longer any camp hosts on-site. The weeds are growing through the top of the picnic tables. Trash and litter is everywhere. (People are literally fly-dumping in the parking lot)

It's a shame to see this OHV camping area in such distress. SHAME ON THE FOREST SERVICE for allowing this!
Their motto is 'Caring For the Land and Serving People' "Well, they sure don't live up to that at this facility."

Super Clean, Beautifull and Exellent host Peggy and her husband

Easy access to the centennial trail

I Like the campground. The bath house was clean and the sites where nice. The host where helpful but the road in sucked.
I wish there was one good road into the site

Wonderful campground. we have been here a few times. Its great for camping and riding 4 wheelers on the trails. The camp host does a great job checking campers in and maintaining the campground.

The hosts were great and it’s a lovely spot. The crowds of people arriving to use their ATVs meant it wasn’t very peaceful in the morning, but the evenings were great.

Stay away- park rangers are rude and not helpful, first time there and 2 female park rangers stopped us and said we were on illegal trail. We had only been there 15 min and couldn’t check into camp site until 3. They did not recognize there own riding permits we purchased online through gov website . They proceeded to issue a $180 ticket and said “ you need to turn around and go out the way you came. They didn’t provide any direction and said the trail we should be on was at campsite . Riders beware, that trail is so narrow and dangerous , if you have a sided by side , it will scratch from all the limbs and no room to pass and no visibility to see anything oncoming . We immediately loaded our ranger and proceeded to go home, it wasn’t even worth staying or setting up camp . The price of campsite and the price of riding permits and price of ticket was about $260. It was the worst hour experience ever. I will not be back!!!!

This campground was excellent for me and my family. We went there to camp and ride atv's. It is in the middle of nowhere so bring all supplies that you need. The campground host does a great job maintaining the bathrooms and the property. She is very nice, and very helpful. We will definitely be going there again.

First come first serve for every site. Multiple bathhouses in excellent condition and well maintained. Campsites aren’t private and are out in the open, but great experience nonetheless. Groundskeepers are so friendly! Great trails for off-roading!!

Excellent host, very flexible. We tent camped and changed our initial site to a nicer site for a tent. The sites are large and have fire rings (some with a cooking grate), picnic tables, and a nice bear box that you can lock if you have a padlock. Some sites may have electricity. There is very limited shade so we brought a beach umbrella and zip tied it to the picnic table. Bathrooms were very clean and well stocked. The road to the campground is well maintained dirt and is 5 miles if you enter from the north or south. Get a site further away from the dirt access roads to avoid any dusty conditions with traffic zipping by. We stayed at site #40 and it was perfect for our tent. We had an ATV and a motorcycle. The initial part of the OHV trail is sandy and pretty tough riding a bike. As the trail splits, it gets better but still sandy for a bike.
