Camp host was aweful. Cussed and screamed at my husband. Rude and unprofessional behavior. Will try going there one more time but if she is there we will leave. Horrible experience. This was our 5th year there and this was the worst experience. If I could give 0 stars I would.

The camp manager did not do their job. They let people park partially in the road and let kids ride bikes and motorcycles at least 15 to 20 miles an hour at all times of the day. It was very annoying. We will not be going back!

We love blackberry and have been going for years and years, my only complaint is it would be nice if the sites could be mowed more often, we love the big sites but they aren’t as usable if a foot high.

When I showed up, there was no camp managers, they abandoned thier post and used the tsunami warning as an excuse. I stayed the night before in Sutton, 2 miles inland, Blackberry is 15+ miles inland.
People were fighting over sites, people could not set up camp, and no one could get wood. None of the campers on site knew what happened to the camp managers.
This place is a big open field with sub par river access.
I did not stay here and I would not recomend it.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.

- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
