Love this campground. Probably the cleanest it’s been over the last 10 years or so we’ve been going there. Campground hosts very nice this time, too. Thanks!!

Camp hosts Trevor and Heidi were amazing. Very nice and very informative about the area. We were having such a great stay we extended our stay two extra days. The only unfortunate part is we had to change sites. No big deal been there before. The frustrating part is that the party that had our site reserved for Friday and Saturday no showed, so the move was for nothing. Heidi had stated this occurs quite frequently. There has got to some sort of improvements that can be made to ensure that more families can enjoy camping and the outdoors. Overall 9 sites that had Friday reservations were still vacant Saturday afternoon. Its hard enough to get reservations as is.

This campground is such a gem! Really quiet and clean and forested. Not all sites are not super private but still a great spot to stay if you are wanting to enjoy the beautiful Gifford Pinchot NF.

Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
