Very clean and well maintained facilities. Will be staying there again. Water at each site would be a plus. Maybe they can get that added in the future.

We look forward to camping at downstream every year, however this year the camp ground hosts were very rude. It was very disappointing and unfortunate.

We have been camping at Downstream for more than 20 years and each season is a pleasure to be there

Grass was too long, mosquitos were plentiful, and the ticks were TERRIBLE. This is our favorite campground but this was not a good visit.

We loved staying at the downstream campground. The bugs left us alone and we’re basically not existent. The gentleman that we checked in with - let us check in early because we had misread/misunderstood check in time. We will definitely be staying here again!

Close to National Fish Hatchery with interesting displays and tour. Campground in a pretty area with a mix of trees and meadows. Nice walking trails from campground. Level sites.

Sites were nicely spaced and pretty level. Large areas all around so plenty of room for the dogs. Great trails to walk the dogs on. Location was pretty good as there were lots of stores museums and such nearby.
