Thomas Canyon

Nice secluded & quiet campground. Quiet, that is, except for the soothing sound of the river coursing through the camp and tumbling over rocks on its way. Dark sky is great for observing the heavens. Recommend hiking the Thomas Canyon trail from the campground and driving further up the canyon from the camp to see meadows and beaver dams & lodges. Pit toilets in the campground are adequate, and water spigots are conveniently located to collect water for filling fresh tanks. We stayed in site 3 with a 35’ bumper pull travel trailer. Our site had a nice concrete pad for the picnic table, camp grill, and our camp chairs.

Two adults and two children in our family enjoyed our site with room for our vehicle and two tents. There was shade later in the afternoon (Site 29). We hiked from the trailhead nearby - steep at first, but beautiful. Restrooms were stocked and cleaned a few days earlier. The drawback was the lack of camp host for support when we arrived at our designated time and the previous occupants had stayed on, thinking that they had a longer reservation. Actually, they had reserved another site and had expected to move, but didn't have clear records where they were supposed to go. Within a half hour, they cooperated by moving and finding the correct site with their name.

Beautiful camp ground. Clean and quiet

Facilities very clean, and campground was well organized with clearly marked spots. The only issue is that it seems to be common practice for people to place “reserve” tickets at first-come-first-serve spots. Many had handwritten payment tickets to “hold” spots for dates that were in the future, but these were different than the printout reservation slips.

This campsite is one of my favorites ever, this spot was just not the best. It's right off the trail so it feels like there's constantly people walking through your campsite.
