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.

The pictures you see are old.Campground is located in the area of the forest fires about 2 yrs ago. Very dust and tons of biting flies and mosquitoes. The reservoir is surrounded by rocks,dirt, tree stumps & dead trees. Hiking close by, but you have you drive. Camp host is no help..Found a great place to hangout on the river away from the campground. It is where I spent most of my time.

My friends got a little lost getting there, but we found it alright in the end. People tend to drive fast on the gravel road, so there is a LOT of dust kicked up and and be kinda cloudy. The spot we had next to the bathroom didn't smell! The water access is great, stargazing was amazing. Don't come here.

The camp sight had ants all over the place you couldn’t put your tent down. I read reviews they said use campsite 12 I did that it wasn’t great at all and the campsites are very small here right next-door basically to the Manager site the table is full of ants so you can’t eat at the table I’m not sure where are you put a boat in I’ve never slept so horrible in my entire life camping out of the 40 years that I’ve been camping one of the campers where are you don’t have to pay for camping by the lake party their music until four in the morning. you can’t get ice anywhere at the stores they paved the roads while we were there and we got the black tar all over our nice you know $70,000 truck. Advice special stuff at Walmart to get it off took us two days to get the Tar off. The mosquitoes couldn’t been any worse their firewood is seven dollars versus five down at the store.
I can’t really say that I enjoyed myself at this campsite I remember as a little girl how much I love this place it’s not the same the first day we got there they coned off the dock so you couldn’t drive your car down there.
There’s nowhere to shower not only that the bathrooms are so disgusting that it’s like a fly city inside the bathroom I’m telling you it was the worst bathroom and camping history!
