Clean clean clean. Restrooms were very well taken care of and the grounds were too. We watched the hosts empty the garbage more than 3 times a day.

This was one of the best public campgrounds we have been to. The camp host and his wife have done an incredible job in this place. The sites are so clean and well maintained. Restrooms freshly painted and clean. Not to mention the natural beauty of the campground is unparalleled. Would love to come again.

Beautiful campground. Great access to the river and UTV riding. Camp hosts were extremely friendly and really work hard to keep the campground in great condition. Cleanest bathrooms I have ever seen in a campground.

Always enjoy camping at Huckleberry. Vaulted bathrooms are always clean. Don't expect internet, very weak signal,need to be by the host camp spot. Closets place for ice etc. is either St. Maries or Avery. Depending what you need St Maries is best.We try and stay there twice during summer. You'll need bug repellent.
