What Guests Are Saying
Outlet Park is praised for its beautiful setting, clean facilities, and friendly camp hosts who provide excellent support to campers. Many visitors enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, spacious sites with good shade, and well-maintained walking trails. However, some noted issues with the river's smell during certain conditions and occasional noise from nearby campsites, but these did not significantly detract from their overall positive experiences.

We have stayed at Outlet Park several times and it is one of our favorites. It is generally a quieter park, good for families with children. The only negative, which can’t be helped, is the bad smell from the river when they are releasing water out of the lake.

Site 27 is shaded, fire ring, picnic table, level, 30-amp, gravel and next to the water. This site is 2 sites away from the group camp. Rangers and Deputies came through several times a day, very nice. Ranger said it was ok to pick up firewood along the hiking trail. We didn't use any of the restrooms. Very peaceful! We would stay again.

Walking trails were very well maintained. Water outlet below the dam is a must see when water level is high. Park and bathhouses/showers were clean and well maintained.

Great campground! You won't see the lake but if that doesn't bother you, this is a very quiet campground, a lot of shade, and very few sites, which makes it quite peaceful.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- Reservations must be made via Recreation.gov website or app, or by calling their reservation line.
- Campers must check for reservations themselves as reservation tags will not be posted.
Cancellation policy
- Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
- Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
