Noisy battery operated ATV’s making loops by our site drove us crazy. No peace in the forest.
Angry camp host complaining loudly was not a good experience either.

We love the Big South Fork and Bandy Creek is a great place to camp. The camping spots were far enough apart to give privacy. Bathrooms were spotless.

The campsites and facilities were wonderful. They have showers and since many people come in big RVs with their own bathroom facilities the showers were always free. The campsites are wooded and not as close together as in many National Park campgrounds. The entire park including the visitor's center is pet friendly.

This is perhaps the cleanest national park I’ve ever stayed at. The bathrooms at Bandy Creek were extremely clean. The agent working the desk at the visitor center was very helpful and courteous. And Tish, the supervisor, has been helping us as we try to set up for a group camp out in May. Everything and everyone at Bandy Creek were outstanding, and we certainly will visit again soon.
