What Guests Are Saying
Peace Valley Campground is an ideal spot for group gatherings, featuring five distinct campsites and a central gathering area that provides privacy. The campground is beautiful and clean, with a nice bathroom facility. However, the water quality is poor, making it advisable to bring your own drinking water.

Showed up and the gate was locked. Called camp host, left voicemails, stayed in service a bit longer, no reply. Called rec.gov, 0 help there and no sympathy or apologies for the situation. Ruined the trip entirely

Bring your own water. The well head is so old that even after pumping out gallons of water, it still had rust in it. Our dogs wouldn't even drink it. A new well pump is only about what they charge for a month stay, so it's not like they couldn't afford to replace it. Stay away from the tail going out the back of the camp ground. That area is infected with ground wasps. If you ever seen a movie about killer bees that attack and follow victims, That was based on a ground hornet. In the process of stinging they mark you with a chemical odor that makes it easy for other wasps to find you. If you run, they will chase you and they are faster than you. Yellow jackets and paper wasps will not chase you very far, unless you have destroyed their nest. Hornets can chase you up to 300 ft (100m). We had several kids and dogs get sting multiple times. We were lucky and had kits with Benadryl. Nice quiet place to stay, but not interested in paying that kind of money for a site with water that can't be used and ground wasps stinging the grandkids every again.

We had two large rigs, two medium rigs and two smaller rigs. Lots of room for the six units.

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.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- 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.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
