What Guests Are Saying

Pikes Ridge is highly praised for its clean, well-maintained facilities and beautiful river views, making it a favorite among campers for nearly three decades. The campground offers a peaceful atmosphere, friendly hosts, and family-oriented activities, enhancing the overall experience. Some suggestions for improvement include adding more electric sites and widening access roads, but these do not overshadow the campground's strong reputation.

I have always had a great experience at Pikesridge we have been going there for years and appreciate everything the Corp and Rangers do, I would hate to see the Corp lease the campground private.

Pikes Ridge is my favorite place on earth. My family has been coming there for 28 years. It is a great family oriented camp ground. My only suggestion would be for more sites with electric and water or allow QUIET generators 24/7.

We had such an amazing camping trip! Mark and his wife are absolutely fantastic hosts. They checked on us daily, always with a smile, making sure we had everything we needed. They even let us know about fun activities like arts and crafts for the kids, which was such a thoughtful touch.

The campground itself was perfect clean, peaceful, and well taken care of. It truly felt like a home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful, peaceful campground. We stay at various COE campgrounds, and Pikes Ridge is by far our favorite. The same sentiment as other campers we camp with. The sites are level, the water views are beautiful. The shower house is spacious and clean. Love the wildlife we see every trip.
