We ended up trading site 17 for site 16, which was on the river and HUGE. Beautiful trees, great shade and direct river access. The river was very cold and moving fast but wonderful to listen to and sit by. There are many trails just a short drive away from the campground and so many little lakes for great day trips also just a drive away. The campground itself was clean and spacious, not slammed in on top of other people. Our camp host Stewie and his sweet doggie Gerty were very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable about the area and we looked forward to chatting with them daily when they did their rounds.

Reservation signage woefully out of date. Host not there much. He had monster dog who barked when anyone walked by. Very little hiking there..Long drive in not really worth it. North Fork C.G. much better and closer to hwy 12. l

Where to begin, our camping host was clueless. Rarely at the campground. His dogs wasn’t the friendliest nor was he. Saturday morning smoke from all the wild fires was coming through the campgrounds my husband and a few other campers went to talk to the host and the host had zero information and that he had to go in to town to find out. Randle is 56 minutes away. So 90 minutes to get information back to anyone. It should be a mandated that all host have 2 way radios out there or something. No it wasn’t from our campfires. Because there was a burn ban. My next complete there was Zero Alerts on the website that we couldn’t have fires. It would have been nice to know that we couldn’t have fires before we left. So we could have planned for it! Yes we checked! Totally understand on why. There should been alert on the website. Been going to Adams forks for years and never have I been this disappointed.
