Private site was great, close to river, easy for kids.
Only drawback was no showers, however neighbouring campsite has pay showers you can visit.

It's great. It's halfway between a Honeyman campground and a dune buggying campground in terms of style.

Campsite was too small to actually use. Our one tent had to be pitched on the edge of the site and was still barely over a foot from the fire pit. There was no privacy whatsoever and the campers next to us were up till 2am blasting music and drinking. Which meant my kids and I barely got any sleep, camp host no where to be found. Bathrooms were dirty and had fecal covered toilet paper and urine all over floors. And our campsite also had garbage from previous campers and dirty toilet paper hung from a tree. We were extremely disappointed with our trip and experience.

The design of the site made it challenging to level, especially after a long day of travel. We did make it up to the bluffs in the morning, and watched a family of otters, much to our delight.

We reserved site 46 last minute online without being able to tell what the location was like. It was a tiny triangle of dry grass between two larger wooded RV sites. We were disappointed at first but since it was too late to find another campsite we made due. It turned out to be fine and we enjoyed our stay.

Great camp ground. We stay here every year during our annual kayak trip down the siltcoos trail.
Clean spacious good restrooms. Great hiking trails and water access.

Nice place. Easy to find. Spits are tight for a truck and 26' trailer. So, be mindful when you reserve a spot. There are bigger spots. We were surprised there was no dump station there, too. Would I stay again? Yes, but with some modifications.

The campground was great and we really enjoyed paddle boarding up and down the river and hiking the trails. Campground host were very friendly and the site was clean. My only complaint is that several of the OHV RV folks ran their generators from 6:30am to 11pm pretty much non-stop.
