We arrived a day early and were quite confused and ran into Larry - the camp host. He was so incredibly helpful. He got us set up in a site for the night and made sure we settled in and we’re aware of the policies, etc. He checked in on us the next day and let us know when our booked site was clear. He check in often, was formerly and helpful, and really made us feel at home. He worked diligently to make sure the sites were clean and answered any questions we had. It was a great experience for our family and I would definitely comeback to visit again.

My 50amp plug didn't work and I had to use my 30amp adapter. But great in all other parts and enjoyed it an wish I could stay here longer.

Camp Host, Larry was helpful and knowledgeable. The only negative is as with many public campgrounds the signage giving directions to the campgrounds is lacking. They are either nonexistent or are to close to where you have to turn off a highway. Going north on St road 159 there is sign close to turnoff that only says the name of the national forest. There is no mention of the Beaver campground. We came in from the north on 159 and I don't recall seeing any sign for either the forest or campground. Sites are large and well maintained. The is ample spacing between most sites.
