The camp hosts made their own rules for the campground. We have been coming to O’Hara for years and never had an issue with the camp hosts but this year was different. They changed quiet hours and came to our camp multiple times to tell us that either the kids were being too loud or that we were and this was all before 9 pm. It’s very sad that this is happening when the kids are playing and using their imagination.

Beautiful setting. Camp hosts were a bit intense. Made for an uncomfortable experience.

We had a nice quiet camping trip. There was a few Geese with goslings and friendly squirrels. Selway Falls was in full flow and beautiful.

I love this campground!! It is in the most beautiful setting. I was there for two weeks. I got to experience weekdays and weekends. I did not enjoy the weekend days. There are ALOT of people who do not follow the dogs on leash rule. I was a prisoner to my campsite because if I walked my dogs around we would be approach by other dogs coming out of their campsite because they were not tied up. Those folks made my experience miserable and I had to drive to another location just to walk my dogs. Other then that I loved my stay.
