We had an amazing time !!! Was pleasantly pleased with all the water in the surrounding streams and the reservoir. We’ve been going there for years and have never seen it that way. The campground was great as usual. The campground hosts were very nice and kept the area clean.

Our trip was absolutely perfect. The campground hosts were so friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Would recommend Pine Valley to anyone looking for a beautiful, clean place to camp. Thank you!
(We were at the Dean Gardner campground. Site D24. Had a perfect, peaceful stream right behind our site.)

The camp hosts were great. They were friendly. We saw them often as they would check on our bathrooms throughout the day.

Everything was great! I have caught more fish in the past than this year. Guessing due to high water level on reservoir due to heavy runoff. Campsite was clean and ready to occupy. Campground host was very nice and friendly. Noise level was at a minimum with very few pet disturbances. I have camped at Pine Valley every year since 2015. Two years I camped twice those years. Camped in Dean Gardner campground each time and fished each time as well.
