What Guests Are Saying
North Park is praised for its beauty, cleanliness, and helpful staff, making it a great destination for family trips. However, concerns have been raised about the transition to a Day Use Park, safety issues due to open gates and lack of supervision, and the prevalence of sticker burrs. Some visitors feel the park's quality has declined in recent years, particularly regarding security and maintenance.

Paid quite a bit of money to stay here for just one night and there was no gate attendant, they left the gate open overnight so anybody could just come into the park it was kind of scary so we ended up leaving around midnight when we realized cars were coming and going at weird hours. North Park has gone downhill significantly since our stay a couple years ago and over the last couple years we've noticed a big difference.

Campground has no hosts and gates are wide open 24 hours. Many people just taking advantage and using the park as a day use park. No reason to pay, no rangers patrolling on the weekends. It's a free for all and not safe as it once was.

I hear that this campground is changing to a Day Use Park. The public is loosing one of the last primitive camp sites on Canyon Lake. It’s a shame that the Corps management is doing this.
