What Guests Are Saying
Slide Creek Campground offers a quiet and secluded experience, with close proximity to Cougar Reservoir and hot springs. While some sites are small and may not be suitable for RVs, many guests appreciate the privacy and natural beauty of the area, as well as the cleanliness and friendliness of the camp host. However, access to the reservoir has become restricted, which may affect water recreation activities.

Site 011 is tiny, but the site directly across the road (on the water side) is great. Clean, well kept campground, with great camp host. The boat launch is awesome, and the reservoir is incredible.

The site itself is nice and spacious with ample parking. However, the large driveway to the site doubles as day use and boat parking which is quite busy on the weekends.

Site 11 was super small and full of mosquitos because of the drainage! Other sites were not as buggy. It was great to be close to the boat ramp and it is a beautiful area.
The site says it can have an RV, most are too small for a trailer!

Site 12 at least was big enough for at least 3 full size tents, with a great view of the river through the trees. Camp host was very friendly and helpful. Sites are closer than expected from what the map showed, but still not that bad. The reason for the 4 star review instead of a 5 is that there isn't much of a swimming area, just a boat ramp and some grassy areas you can swim. But it would be great for kayaking, boating, and floats. The one other reason is that whilst I was there there was a group that blasted music unbelievably loud between the hours of 3 am and 5 am, there site was fairly close to the host, yet not once did the host ask them to turn the music down. Now it could be that he was just a really sound sleeper, but when I say loud, I mean concert loud.
