We went on a 2-day climbing trip to Maple Canyon. It was beautiful and a very quiet campground which we loved. And the climbing options and type of rocks is so unique.

Such a beautiful area with some stellar camping spots. Love the variety of drive-up sites for ease of set-up and walk-in for a bit more privacy. Wish the fire pits had a grill plate over them. The bathrooms are surprisingly clean, especially for how busy the canyon gets during peak season. The host was kind, helpful and welcoming. Be mindful of the parking restrictions for your site, it is not a suggestion but rather the reality of how many spots are available. Love coming to Maple Canyon and we are counting down the days until our next trip!

Please provide trash receptacles in the campground for both trash and recycling. Please provide camp host with firewood for purchase and fresh drinking water for purchase if water taps cannot be installed.
