The Campground closed unexpectedly before we arrived with a reservation as did the dump station. Not a great situation when you arrive an hour before sunset!

After I received an email, Sat. Sept 30 confirming our one night stay.
We never got to stay at this Deer Run Campground #18. Monday Oct 2nd. The Fed gov did not shut down !
We get to the gate and its locked closed, several paper notes posted closed.
I called recration.gov right away because I had cell signal at bottom of gorge, to ensure I got a refund,,, phone rep said its supposed to be open, not supposed to be closed.
So, We had to drive further south to BLM land and found a camp, No water, no RR, Nothing out there but a lonely bull elk screaming all night. Weirdest thing was, in the middle of nowhere/ wilderness we got super fast 5G signal.

Normally, I would give Deer Run a 5 star review, but we arrived for our reservation only to find the campground closed with not notice or warning. We moved to a different one only to be told that one was closing also and had to tear down camp again, and move. The communication process needs to be fixed.

A very nice campground. The camp host was very friendly and helpful. There was some truck engine brake noise from 191 but wasn't constant or terrible. We would definitely go back!
