What Guests Are Saying
Moss Creek Campground is praised for its beautiful, serene location next to the river, friendly camp hosts, and clean facilities. Many campers enjoyed the spacious sites and the peaceful atmosphere, making it a great spot for relaxation and outdoor activities. However, some noted the lack of potable water, limited parking at certain sites, and occasional noise from nearby roads, but these did not significantly detract from their overall positive experience.

A great starting off place for good hiking- the trail starting at the campground to the lava butte is a real challenge! downed trees, slippery slopes- easy river crossing early in the year. At 27B I could barely see other campers and, this year, no loud generators or music.

We had an excellent time at Moss Creek and would love to return in the future. Site 14 is as nice as advertised. We stayed overnight on a Thursday and had the loop to ourselves save for a few walkers heading down to the creek. One thing we realized is that the vault toilet on the map is actually uphill and not as pictured, so if you stay at sites 13 and 14, prepare to hike a bit.
Our camp host was very welcoming. The vault toilets at the center of the campground were in great shape. The accessible one was a bit rough. The water was out, but Recreation.gov did a good job notifying in advance, so it wasn’t a surprise that dampened our visit.

- Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
- Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
- Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
- One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
- Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
- Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
