Snag Cove Campground

This is a gorgeous campground! Somehow we ended up here when it was otherwise deserted. The restroom isn't the cleanest but it's a great place with a gorgeous view.

Plan ahead. No drinking water at campground. There is a pit toilet, dumpster and boat ramp. No real beach area but a small area to splash in the river. Fire ban in effect now so check online to see if it is lifted. Great little campground with all 8 sites reservable.

Campground is alright. Super close to the road and not much space between campsites but does have beautiful views and they keep the outhouse alright maintained. The park rangers were a little off putting. They were writing us a ticket for not having a launch pass even though we have an annual pass in our vehicle window. The lady was a little rude stating it needs to have one on the trailer too even though their instructions on their board said it goes in the window of the towing vehicle. Just kind of frustrating when you pay a lot to camp, a lot to launch your boat. A lot in license fees to fish and then they try and ticket you for following their instructions, without even a question.

Nice campground. However the upkeep of the campground isn’t as nice as they use to be. They used to clear all the pine needles from the asphalt and the camping areas. Layers of pine needles and pinecones are all over the campground. Not a huge deal, but I would think it would be less fuel for fires. Also it just makes our Federal campgrounds look like we care about aesthetics. I think it would be an awesome summer project for youth or adults. Or those sentenced to do community service.

So loud, one logging truck after another with Jake brakes blaring, stayed two nights and left 2 days early.

Quiet and small campground.

Lots of misquitos, flies, and wasps; while being near the water is understandable, this camp ground has significantly more than others. Highway is right next to camp ground, so you hear every vehicle every time. You might get lucky and get cell signal for a minute or two, every couple of hours. Everyone seemed to experiance this (every carrier). Campsites are so close together it feels like your neighbors are all sharing your site, two of the sites over lap with their table/firepit literally behind where you would park your RV/car! Too many other options in campgrounds out there to deal with this one. If you do want to camp here, you better like a lot of other people and bugs!
