Tanners Flat

The campsite is really pretty and our group really enjoyed the little trails to the river, the view of the mountains, and the ample seating. I rated this three stars because the website had advertised that there would be flushable toilets and drinkable water, neither of which were available/operating. It was a big draw for booking so we were pretty disappointed when we arrived and found that out.

Great campground and great campsite! This was our 3rd year doing site #34 here, and it's so fun! The area around the table and campfire is smaller than some of the other sites, but it is also more secluded than many of the other sites. The trail to that site is its own trail, so no one passes the site to get to their own. It's also not close to the fast creek, so it's a lot safer for families with young kids! To get to the creek, you'd have to walk out to the parking area, then take the trail that goes past #32 and toward #33. There are a lot of trees surrounding the site, including a couple suitable for hammocks.

Note: Because of an avalanche a few years ago, the lower sites and the water are no longer available, which means only porta potties and no handwashing. We brought a water dispenser + soap this year, and that made it work out great!

We love Tanner's Flat for it's proximity to our residence and the scenery. We really loved our campsite- great space and set up. It is next to the river on either side and near restrooms, but not too close. The only downside I would say is it is loud. You get some road noise, but the rushing water is from the river is fairly loud. I would keep coming back to this spot.

Awesome campsite and host.

There are some beautiful sites here, but in spite of an excellent host, the campground suffers from a lack of maintenance due to cuts in personnel and funding. There has been a steady decline since an avalanche destroyed the lower loop a few years ago. There's now no hope of restoring water and toilets for at least the next 3 years.

I had reserved sites 28 and 29 which are both accessed down the same path. 28 had lovely amount of shade and enough space to play. Fire ring surrounded by rocks so harder for the smallest children to access safely. 29 is close to river so if I ever reserve this again, I will reserve later in season when it's less dangerous and it's easier to be heard within the site. I would love the picnic table to be moved further away from river bank and less overgrown. Host was great. Bathrooms are porta potties but kept well stocked and clean.

I went there with my daughter camping for the first time, on my birthday! The campsite was really well maintained and had everything we needed! We had a great time together and will definitely come back!

The trail to where my tent would be placed was very narrow and difficult to walk on. My tent was placed above where the table and fire pit was making it extremely difficult for me to go back and forth since I had to hike up a very steep hill. The tent area is extremely small. I brought my own water because there is no water available and the bathrooms are still closed and there are porta potties. The fact I had to park on a hill and walk on a hill because my campsite was on a hill made it extremely difficult for me because I am much older. I ended up leaving a day early because of the difficulty of staying at this specific campsite. I thought I was getting a campsite like I had seen in the picture provided but was made aware upon arrival that those are fake pictures. I was unable to determine what was getting into my plastic totes and eating my food. I was sitting within feet of the tote and it was on the table and I never saw anything enter or exit but when I walked over the food had been drugged out and had been eaten or destroyed. This is a campsite for a single person with a very small tent who is very athletically fit who can climb up and down the steep Cliff to get to and from the tent to the table

The Best Site in Little Cottonwood!! Wheelchair accessible. Beautiful views. Years of memories!!

What glorious place to stay ! Peaceful, quiet, spotlessly clean and surrounded by nature.
