Deer Run Campground

Been staying for a few years in July. Water hydrant by campsite did not work. Got the annual give your money for our towed vehicle ($10) per day. Campground is already expensive was $180 +\- for 4 nights with reservation fee. Most of the showers were out of service due to a group of 4th of July camps that got rowdy and destructive. They then took the rest out of service to do some water leak testing in the middle of our stay. The dump station is by appointment only with the host. Campground is really nice and quiet. A few of the spots are big enough for a large rv. The lake is nice. The host/manager was pleasant was really empty lots of sites reserved but no show.

We have always loved staying at Deer Run every year. This year was not the case. One of the main reasons we like it is the showers. I know that it is beyond their control that this year there was a water issue with broken pipes, but only having two showers open for all the campers staying was impossible given that they were open only certain times.
The campsites have always been cleaned and the tables newly painted… this year tables were broken, splintered and unpainted. There was garbage left we were blamed for.
We generally are a group of at least 20 and reserve at least 3 sites so we are aware of the extra car charge( also stated on the the website) - we hadn’t even gotten settled before the managers were here demanding money - but got defensive when we asked about compensation for the showers and the broken tables.
Deer Run is still a nice campground with all the trees and views- hopefully things get better.
Any compensation would be appreciated.

Although there were water issues and some of the facilities were either not open or open for limited time frames, the camp host, Storm, was stellar and help make our stay comfortable. She's a keeper!

This was my second trip to this campsite. I went last year right around the same time in June. Great campsite and the manager is excellent. The only disappointment this round was that the water was turned off meaning no showers or any water access. We ended up leaving early, heading up to a hotel in Green River Wyoming, and continued our trip. I would definitely visit there again. It’s just unfortunate that the water was turned off for some reason.

Storm, the camp hostess, was honestly 10+. She was cheerful, helpful, thoughtful, and hard working. Having been trailer camping for 30 years, I have to say that she was the best. Deer Run campground is superlative and when you have a hostess like Storm, you just need to scribble a wonderful comment.

Overall the campground and host were great. It is early season so not all water facilities are up and running but that wasn’t a problem for us. The area was clean, quiet, and close to the marina which made it a perfect spot to call home base for our fishing trip.

Site 15. Pretty spot with shade. Area was clean. We had two tents and while there were areas to put them up, there were not raised tent pads and if it rained there would be problems as they were in drainages. We were there for the opening weekend starting May 11th. Definitely no water and no showers and there was still no water when we left on the 15th. Only one of the vault toilets was open, the other locked. The camp host did a good job cleaning them. The Cedar Springs marina didn't have fish cleaning tables open. Boat ramps (Cedar Springs and Antelope Flats) had debris and rocks on them. Boating and fishing was good with spectacular scenery.

We love staying at Deer run. Nice large private camp spots. Close to the marina and other needs. We love the showers in this camp. Just what’s needed after a long day playing on the Gorge. Our camp host this last time was so kind and helpful. They always are but even more so this last time.

Campground was very empty when we were here in Sept/October. Camp host Susie was very friendly and helpful. Sites were very large and the pit toilets were very clean.
