Nice site... well managed. Lots of afternoon shade. Showering facilities greatly improved from my last stay in 2014.

The down side was that there were a lot of camping areas, but mainly for tent camping. There was one main area for RV’s, which was ok if you were lucky to get a spot under a tree. Unfortunately, we did not as there were no trees and full sun in lot 602. If they would expand to other areas where there is a lot of shade for RV’s, that would be great! Otherwise, the location was pretty good. We were super close to the beautiful, crystal clear water that we enjoyed sitting in and relaxing for a couple hours each day. Also close to Alley Springs Mill, which was so peaceful and beautiful!

Tent-camped in an electric site this time. It was level and grassy with shade in the afternoon, so perfect for a tent. When we arrived, the GFI (110 volt outlet) wasn't working (we borrowed power from the next site). Mentioned this to the host as she was making her rounds. When we got back from floating the next afternoon, it was fixed. Hard to beat that service. The pedestrian bridge over the river is open again, so it's possible to walk to Alley Spring and Mill without having to walk along the highway (you still have to cross it). Restrooms and shower building are in great shape. Just an overall pleasant experience.

Great spot to stay on the river. Clean sites and well maintained campgrounds. Evening programs enjoyable and park staff and rangers could not be nicer!

Took my kids to Alley this summer. They’re the 4th generation of my family that’s been coming to Alley. It’s a great Family campground!

Love the campground however it would be great if there was another loop with water and electric as it’s hard to get a site unless you book 6 months exactly ahead.

We really enjoyed our visit to this nice campground. the best part for us was the ability to get to the river from the campground.
