Beautiful campground with fully paved road and campsites. Very clean restrooms. Campground hosts friendly and helpful. Hot spring pool was the perfect temperature! But beware of Forest Road 227 east of Featherville where the pavement ends. It took us over half an hour to drive those 9 miles. Unavoidable deep potholes everywhere with maximum speed of 5-10 mph in many spots.

We loved the large family campground. Lots of room and quiet. Only wish it had water. Had to drive up to the other camp ground to get water access.

Clean bathrooms! Very well kept campground. If you don't like snakes you should camp somewhere else.

What a great campground. The camp host is the best. He keeps the place clean and working. The F.S. crew cleans the pool. and rest rooms weekly. The experience at Bumgartner keeps John proud of what he has offered for everyone. The nature trail is a real bonus as well.

great experience, clean site, and peaceful. Love that the side by sides are to be trailered in and out - keeps the campground quieter and safer for kids.

Nice, quiet, and clean campground. In previous years we camped here, the pool would get cleaned, but I never saw it as clean as when the cleaner guy (I think his name is Tyler) did it this time. He really pressure washed it well. No green algae left.

Beautiful campground! I like that it’s paved and they don’t allow motorcycles, 4-wheelers, side-by-sides, etc. in the campground.
