One of our favorite places to go. Great escape not too far from home. Beautiful place, heavily wooded and very clean. Always enjoy our stay there.

Host was awful. They have super aggressive dogs, one that but my husband and several other campers that we saw. Then they put a snarky note in the camper basically telling everyone that if they get to close to the camper the dog will react and bite if threatened. After the dog bit my husband, she never even said sorry she shamed him for telling her to get a better hold on it and then she said something like, “well it didn’t hurt you “

Had a couple great nights at black canyon. Some sites are close to the highway (road noise) and some outhouses are no longer there, but overall quite nice and clean. Host was super-helpful.

The campsites numbered 40+ are some of the best. Lots of space between sites allows a secluded feel that is just perfect. Beautiful nature, well-managed facilities, and a friendly camp host. I will definitely be coming back next year!
