This is a beautiful site and it was nice and quiet for our stay. Short, easy hike to the falls. It's small and seems well maintained although in the 3 days we were there, we saw no maintenance staff. We camped late in the season and there was no firewood left. We brought enough so we were OK.

Lots of nature walks to do. We enjoy the solitude and the quiet. The road noise is minimal.
No TP in the outhouse after a long weekend. Camp host was gone. No firewood, glad we brought our own.

Love the campground, will be going back in a couple weeks. It's beautiful, peaceful and a real get away from everything.
The first restroom (closet to entrance) could use some maintenance. Definitely bring hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes.
Overall, a beautiful place. Highly recommend.

The campground sites are spacious and more private than many other campgrounds. The majorly of creekside sites have paths to the creek. The forest trails include rainforesty and drier paths, and all are gorgeous. On weekends, the trails emanating from the waterfall day use can be quite busy, but the trails emanating from the campground are much less used. One can take the trails behind the campground and not meet anyone. The camp host and the rangers maintain the campground beautifully. Sites 2, 4, 14, and 15 have particularly nice paths to the creek.

Beautiful site, spot 9 was very private for a state park like this one. Only hang up was someone was already in our site when we arrived. Directions about what is, and more importantly what is not, walk up could be clearer to avoid tense interactions. Otherwise a fantastic place to camp.

We stayed in sites 10 and 11 with friends. We were in 11 and our friends were in 10. These sites are OK but not the best. There is no creek access and they are right between the bathrooms. Site 10 was OK but site 11 frequently smelled like sewage so we ended up doing all of our cooking and eating and hanging out at site 10 which was fine. There are some great hiking trails right from the campgrounds and we went to Alsea Falls a few times and hiked to the other falls - a bit further once. There is no electric but there is ample water around the campground for drinking and dish washing.
