Summary

AI generated

Tower Rock Campground is a well-maintained and quiet site with clean facilities and plenty of shade, making it a pleasant spot for relaxation. While campsites are somewhat close together and there is no official river access, the campground offers easy access to nearby attractions like the Northern Gifford Pinchot. Some visitors noted a lack of amenities, such as toilet paper, and confusion with a similarly named campground, but overall, the environment is appreciated for its peaceful vibes and friendly atmosphere.

Very important note: There is a Tower Rock campground AND Tower Rock U-Fish and RV Campground, 2 SEPARATE campgrounds apparently many people go to the wrong one like in our case and luckily a camper gave us the correct information
The campground was quiet but not very picturesque but we just needed a campsite while we went motorcycle riding around the area.

This is incorrectly listed as having space for a tent. There isn't an official tent spot at this location.

Also, the toilet paper ran out half way through the weekend, and the campground manager was nowhere to be seen.

Also, not having official river access is a real downside of this campground. There is an old road right of way nearby that used to cross the river, and a public trail should be made down to that spot, or the private shoreline bought out.

Nice private spot.

Campground is overall well maintained, quiet, with a nice forest.

Toilet paper ran out halfway through the weekend, and the camp host was not around.

No public access to the river though, which is too bad — one should be created to enhance the quality of this campground.

Lovely, quiet, great access to Northern Gifford Pinchot including Windy Ridge area. We never saw the host (didn’t need anything) but the campground and restrooms were spotless.
