Beautiful shady, private setting in verdant, mossy, old growth forest. A timeless campground. Try and get a site near the river - a lot of D, E and A are, or for more privacy and cool shade, the C, B loops are very pretty to. The vault toilet nearest us was clean and well stocked. There were no bug problems this time of year (mid-late August.). Campground was full or nearly so, but still seemed quiet and private. I will echo other reviews - this is a historic campground - it has a bit of a well kept, but vintage 50s feel - and parking slabs are made for cars. Most spots would be VERY tight for a trailer, with the exception of those with pull-throughs, as would some of the turns getting in. But a truck and camper would be fine for many.

First time camping at this campground and my experience was good. The site was clean and I felt safe camping solo. I stayed in A-22 which was a small site next to public water spout. The only drawback was the consistent stream of campers coming through to use the water and some felt compelled to talk to me to break the awkwardness of them being so close to my site (which was fine). The river was beautiful and was not crowded while I was there. About 50 mins from Paradise, WA. I would stay at this campground again, but be weary of sites near water sources and toilets (honey buckets, which are pretty smelly).

People in our reserved camp site, roads are to narrow and sites are to close to each other. We did not stay after all that and won’t go back

Over all great experience! Well maintained. We love the deep in the woods feel. The Blue Hole and the hiking trails are a plus!

A great campground right next to the river. Beautiful swimming hole . Unfortuantely our spot was next to some very smelly porta potties that were extremely full.
