Beautiful campground, nice and clean, the hosts were very busy keeping everything up, and the toilet was well clean and maintained. Trails around were great for young kids to hike. Will definitely be back.

What a beautiful campground! We camped with two of our adult kids and their spouses and our four grandchildren. The camp was quiet except for the birds and the rapid flowing river, which we found to be quite soothing. The campground was clean as were the bathrooms. Camp hosts Barb and her husband were so friendly and obviously take pride in maintaining this lovely place. The little grandkids had a blast riding bikes and playing among the trees. We'll definitely consider camping here again!

This campground was relaxing and quiet over the July 4th weekend. The campground was well taken care of and the bathrooms were hands down the cleanest campground bathrooms I have ever been in. Site 7 is a pull-thru site with a path down the hill to the waterfront section of the site. There was lots of room for my tent and hammock.

Great obscure campground on the Cispus River. Only 19 sites and very quiet and clean - best pit toilets ever - very clean, accessible and best of all doesn’t smell. Plenty of water spouts. RV space for rigs about 24 ft or smaller - no hook-ups. Shaded sites. Great camp hosts as well.
