Beautiful July stay at Ally. Extremely hot and grateful for the A/C when at camp. But that’s not what it’s all about right? Harry’s picked up at the campsite for a float trip.

I have been coming down to Ally Spring for over 50 years now.
I am so glad it has been maintained and kept as pristine as I remember it all these years.

This campground is great. Clean, from fields to showers and restrooms. Only reason I gave 4 stars is noise from resurfacing equipment made very early as 8 am. They could start at least after 10 am, when most people are up.

There was construction to pave the sites. The workers started at 7 am & were using a commercial blower on a bobcat which blew the debris and dust off the section where they were working toward our loop. While I appreciate the new paved pads, the early morning start & use of the blower was not appreciated!
Other than that, it was a great stay.

The campground was beautiful and clean. Walking access to the river. There was a large park ranger presence which seemed a bit excessive but it did make for a quiet and peaceful experience. The bathrooms were cleaned multiple times a day, along with the shower houses.
