A most relaxing place to visit. Totally calming. No cell service or internet in campground which can be good for everyone to take a break from. Good place for bicycling

Nice quiet campground. At 3,400 feet, it is quite pleasant for August with wonderful camping weather. Sometime being in the clouds can be wet. Facilities are nice as well.

quiet and peaceful campground! Temperatures were great for August - highs in the mid 70s.

This will be the second time this year we camped at Standing Indian to cool off during these
oppressively hot summer months. As usual, the experience at the campground was great, but best of all, it's close to numerous small rivers and streams where a few trout are available for the patient fisherman.
