What Guests Are Saying
Huckleberry Campground is praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly camp hosts who take pride in their work. The beautiful setting by the river offers opportunities for relaxation and outdoor activities, making it a favorite for families. However, some guests noted noise from nearby logging trucks and felt that the pricing was high, especially regarding additional fees for electricity.

What a pleasure to stay here. Campground very well kept and serviced. All the accommodations to expect with exception of showers so river front site recommended. Definitely stay again and located conveniently to drive 20 minutes to Avery.

Been going there for 20 years or more. Was really unsatisfied with the camp hosts. My biggest problem was that you can register so many cars per site. We only had 2, even though I put in the max. Told us if a tire was touching the grass, we had to move the vehicle. I am handicapped with a state sticker and had to park quite away from our campsite. Camp host was rude about it. Need to make campsites a little wider so they can accommodate handicapped people.

The campground was very clean and well-kept. The hosts were very helpful and friendly.
There are hot spots for cell phone use.

Huckleberry has very well-maintained grounds and clean vault bathrooms. The sites are large, the scenery beautiful, and the fishing okay considering it gets pummeled every weekend and somewhat throughout the week.
Campsites have full hook ups so the RVers are all over it on the weekend. I've got nothing but love for 'em but they do have some odd habits. At Huckleberry many of the campers brought ATVs and used them to slowly cruise the campground loops like low riders on Sunset Boulevard. The noise and exhaust fumes were an unwelcome irritation in such a beautiful spot.

This is a fantastic campground! Camp hosts are great. While there is a bery small area at the campground that provides a wifi connection, just make sure you are prepared for no cell phone service for 10 miles either way of the place. This might be a good thing for some :).

Huckleberry is still undergoing renovation; however, the past 3 years of effort are really making an impact-reduced noxious weeds, less hazardous trim limbs, improved water and power systems.

Amazing place. Lots of people but each campsite was secluded. Best kept campsite I've seen in a long time. Even pit toilets were delightfully well maintained and comfortable to visit. Camp hosts were out keeping up the grounds and amenities consistently.

The campground is great, but the camp host was picky, petty, and in your business frequently.

Great place to camp. We were on the river side and it was a very easy walk down to the river. We played fetch in the river with our dog who never wanted to stop. The park is very well taken care of by the hosts and very clean including the outhouses. We camped late in the season mid September and the campground was not full, but it was very quiet at night....camping spots for the trailer are large and grounds around the spots are well maintained. Firewood is available onsite. We will make this an annual trip if not more/
