We absolutely love this park and have been going for over 20 years. The website should be easier to maneuver through however.

Sewer dump was down. Had to dispose of at my house. Water was turned off with no notice and when turned back on it was nasty, rust colored. Nice parking cement pads. Been here 3 times and this was the only time sewer dump site was closed.

I have been camping at Johnson Creek Campground for years in the T2 tent area and the bathrooms there are deplorable and getting worse. There was not a working shower on the women's side and there is a toilet that has been leaking for years.
Please invest some money in repairing this bathroom. Being in the tent area, it is probably used more than any of the others.

- 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.
