What Guests Are Saying

Alley Spring Campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and beautiful surroundings, including proximity to the Jacks Fork River and natural beauty. Many visitors enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, spacious campsites, and opportunities for water activities, while expressing a desire to return. However, some noted the lack of cell service and limited electrical hookups as areas for improvement, particularly regarding reservations and access to amenities.

Great place to be secluded. I wish there were cell/radio towers nearby. I couldn't find a single radio station to listen to while at the campsite.

We had a great 5 day stay at Alley Spring campground. It is well maintained and there is an occasional drive-by patrol from the park rangers or other law enforcement for security. The Jack's Fork is my favorite float stream so the location is ideal.

Excellent campground and place to get away and disconnect from the city. Nature everywhere. The historic Alley Spring Mill is a must see. The Jacks Fork River is a perfect place for enjoyment whether you’re swimming, fishing, canoeing, or kayaking. Only one loop has electric and water hookups so early registration is a must. My family has been going here since 1972.

We stayed in two clusters sites at Alley Springs with a large group. The sites were very well maintained, private, quiet and great grassy, flat spaces for tents! The bathrooms were clean (and cleaned well each day!) and shower house was close and clean! Will definitely return, we love this campground!

We stayed there over memorial day weekend. The kids really enjoyed the ranger program but they wished they had a playground to play in. We had a pretty big group with us and had plenty of room to play in the common area (we stayed in the 600 loop). It would have been nice if the spots were full hookup but we did fine all weekend without them. Also, we didn't see a park host the whole time we were there and the grass could have been mowed a bit more. The dump station was weird because it allowed for two vehicles to be in the space at one time as long as they were facing opposite directions however there was only one sewer hook up so really two individual vehicles could not dump at the same time. Not related to the park, but if you are interested in floating on the river we rented from Harvey's which is right across the street and they did a great job!

The small gravel offshoot from the service road has resulted in numerous persons entering our campsite, despite us informing them that it is a private campsite. Also, on our 2nd day, we informed the restroom service personnel that we needed soap in the ladies restroom. They made some adjustment, but it still didn't work correctly. They also didn't seem to visit daily, like in times past.
