We were blessed with great weather. Some of the gophers got a little friendly.
They were trying to climb the outdoor grill and climbed our camper steps. Just curious what the camp hosts do. I would think they would at least introduce themselves. The one parked next to us never came to our campsite. We've camped at Downstream since the 1960's. Thanks for all the memories.

Beautiful site and nice amenities. Camp hosts seemed to pester those around us that liked to stay up a bit later but I can understand. Will 100% visit again.

Nice campground. Never saw a park attendant or a ranger. You could easily camp there without a reservation. No one would ever know.

Mosquitos were terrible making the walking path next to the river unusable. The main road between the loops was pretty bad too.

Could have done a better job at spraying for mosquitoes!

We normally love this place but this last time we went the mosquitoes were so bad it was hard to be outside.
