What Guests Are Saying
Kuykendall Group Camp is a spacious and clean campsite, ideal for accommodating large groups, with great new grills and a refreshing water source for hot summer days. Guests appreciate the nearby creek for swimming and overall cleanliness of the facility. However, some noted that the bathrooms needed more attention before their arrival.

Amazing campground and location! Enough space for folks to have some privacy at their own tent but close enough to make it easy to join together for meals and bonfires. Beautiful area and love having the stream right behind the campground!

Easy to find and get to. Stream crossing was not a big deal. We had some rain the night we were there but were still able to cross in a full size suv. There are a number of picnic tables (4?), a rudimentary grill and a fire ring. There's a "cabinet" we used to keep our trash in overnight. It appeared to be bear proof. Ton of open field. A nice stream. FYI we heard a ton of coyotes at night.

I love this campsite. It can accommodate our entire staff, the new grills are great for cooking for a large group and the water running through the site it great for the hot summer weather. We like to stroll down the the larger creek at the entrance for swimming too.

Bathrooms could have used some attention prior to our groups arrival. Other than that it was a good experience.

Awesome camp ground. Babbling creek flowing nearby. Huge open field. Cathey's Creek waterfall, right down the road. We will definitely come back.
