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.

The pit toilet was sub par and pretty dirty. WiFi signal was too weak to connect anywhere in the campground. The whole side of our van was also keyed during our first night. We chose to move on to better accomodations and eat the cost of our second night.

Beautiful site right on the river. Easy access, water and electric hookups as well as wi-fi accessible. Only planned on one day, but stayed a 2nd night. We plan on coming back.

The current Campground Host is Second to None! They take Exceptional Care of the campground as well as the needs of whatever campers may require.
This is not an easy task sometimes, but they do a fantastic job. This alone can change the quality of the camping trip.
Many sites we have camped at, the experience is less than desirable due to lack of attention by the local host. We go camping and seem to pay higher Fees every year and many locations have lost interest in maintaining a clean and inviting environment.
Bottom line... The Host, sometimes if not Always is what campers see as the folks we are dealing with!
The site was in good shape and well cared for!
