The campground was lovely. Well-spaced camp sites. The grounds were well-maintained. My daughter noted that the vault toilets even smelled nice. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. We ended up not staying overnight as it was our first trip taking 2 dogs - one a recent rescue with anxiety - and they just could not settle. We told our host that we had decided to return home and to please let other campers know our space was available. He notified a couple who were down the road with no campsite. They were very happy to have the site. We look forward to returning and actually spending a few nights at Amanita.

A tree that was well over 100 ft tall fell on our camp trailer. It did significant damage. Another couple feet over and we may have been killed. It was truly terrifying experience. We will not be returning to that campground!

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
