Best camping spot we have had this summer! Quiet and clean...we called it our little piece of paradise! Mountain Biking was amazing and so were the hikes. We will be back!

Beautiful campground. Very well taken care of. Clean. Quiet. Excellent separation of space between campsite, and still maintain a forestry feel.
If you want to hear the faint sound of a flowing creek, owls hooting, crickets chirping, frogs croaking, and shooting stars, this is ideal.
The hike to the waterfall was wonderful. It was too cold that morning to take a swim, but we will next time. We will definitely be returning to this campground.
I do wish there was horseshoe pit or plant/bug/wildlife identifier along the trail.

Clean campsite, good distance between campsites allow for private feel. River and waterfalls are only a short hike away, giving ample opportunities for family activities. Fellow campers were also very respectful during quiet hours. Would definitely camp here again.

This is a very sweet park - lively campsites and a friendly ranger. There wasn’t a camp host when I was there but the ranger came around and answered questions. The hiking is awesome. The river is beautiful here. Highly recommend.

I abasolutely had a fantastic experience. The campground located to trails that take one to the falls was clean, included water and some of the cleanest vault toilets I have ever experienced in a campground. Old growth fir trees provide shade and privacy between sites.

All sites are large, include a picnic able and nice fire pits. One can choose sites that are next to the river or ones that are closer to the entrance and sunny.

$12 per night or $6 with Golden Age Pass Reservations only

Site number three has a steep parking area that requires leveling. I would suggest that unless your a tent camper to avoid this site.
