Visitors appreciate the proximity to the river and hot springs, which enhance the camping experience, along with the friendly and helpful camp host. While access via the rough road from Featherville is noted as a downside, the overall atmosphere, privacy between sites, and amenities make it a popular choice for families and returning guests.

Despite the last 8 miles of washboard foat to get to Baumgartner. it was fantastic. Campsites had plenty of room and they were all clean. The hot springs was well cared for.. emptied each night and refilled every morning. I forget the host's name.. Kelly? He was fantastic.

First time to this campground that many friends have said great things about.
Very clean, quiet and relaxing. The host does a great job of keeping the restrooms clean and the hot spring/pool well attended to.
Also loved how much privacy and space there is between the camp spots.
We will be back again for sure.

Always a lovely campground. The camp hosts do a great job. I can’t imagine it’s easy trying to explain to folks to follow the simple rules, they take pride in doing so.

Campground is great! sites are level, well maintained, and positioned as to not crowd space between campers. The downside is the condition of the road from Featherville to the campground. This is not a CG issue, but I can't understand why the State or County cannot improve the road surface by grading, etc. The horrible road condition likely deters potential campers from enjoying this beautiful campground.

Immaculately kept by the campground host. Hot pool drained every night, refilled every morning. Quiet lovely spot right on the river.

We have been coming to Baumgartner's for years. Our kids came here and now their kids live it, too. The river and hot tub make it the perfect camping spot.

Awesome group campground, you basically get a whole loop of campgrounds in one big campground with a few bathrooms and newly installed drinkable water in the campground. The center pavilion is very nice. One of the best group campgrounds I have used, look forward to using it again sometime.
