Beautiful campground, even though there was no water. Quiet and peaceful. Yellow jackets were pesty, but could not compete with the lovely Metolius River.

A longtime favorite of ours. Not very RV friendly, much more of a tent campground. No water on site. Yellow Jackets beginning to become a nuisance at mealtimes. No cell service, which is a plus in these over-connected times we live in.

Love this campground! SO beautiful. We come here every year. Love how quiet it is.
Only issue is no potable water in the campground. And the recycling was overflowing.

I arrived mid day on 2nd day of reservation to find a family in my reserved site. The “reserved” card was blank. The lady told me the official making rounds told them site was available, so they moved their stuff over. I reported this to the official ( not a camp host) & he said they were “behind due to staffing.” Fortunately the campers were gracious after seeing my reservation notice and left. Unnecessary confusion, and had to stand around in the heat waiting to get into the site. Otherwise Allen Springs was good

The bathrooms should be cleaned and stocked daily for an excellent rating.

If I say how great a campground Allen Springs is, then even more people will book here, and then it will be harder than ever to reserve a site, so I’m gonna just keep quiet!!
