Lower Falls Campground features spacious, well-maintained campsites with ample shade and beautiful riverside views, making it an ideal spot for nature lovers. The breathtaking nearby waterfalls and numerous hiking trails enhance the camping experience, although the campground lacks adequate water stations and has issues with cleanliness in the bathrooms.

Campsite 1 was in a great spot. We could hear the water all day. Only downside was the site wasn’t flat so it was hard to find space for 3 tents and there were wet wipes/trash left from previous groups.

We stayed in the upper loop and loved the spacious and beautiful campsites. Our only complaint was the frequent loud barking of a dog who was with campers in the lower loop. Is there a written expectation that dogs will be under voice command and not a noise nuisance in the campground? If not, then I think it should be added and enforced. Otherwise, we loved our experience and are looking forward to coming back.

First let me say that the camping and site itself were lovely! However,
The camp host was not helpful at all. We had a Tuesday reservation and came up early to try and get a site (assuming people had reserved for long stretches and not showed or left early). Most camp hosts will help and give you a heads up about sites that have opened up, but not this one. We needed up doing dispersed camping for the first night even though there were MANY open sites available. He also made us turn around to drive down the road for miles to get cell service (news flash you have to go about 15) to buy an ONLINE pass for the day use. There was no way to pay at the parking area. When we came back (at 3:30 pm with an half empty lot) he insisted we needed the pass even though we tried to get it and were unable to get cell service. He was incredible rude and argumentative and not understanding at all.
He was the least helpful camp host I’ve encountered.

Spacious campsites, amazing tall trees all around that provide shade, short walk to the falls for viewing or a swim, nice hiking, road & mtn biking right from the campsite.

The campground is great. It's ridiculous that the camping fees done include parking at any of the falls and that since there is no service, you'd have to drive "6 miles" to get service to get a pass to park at the river that you've already paid to camp at. Unfortunately, we got a ticket along with the only other car parked in the parking lot. It was a Monday and not busy at all. We even had our forest pass. So lame.

This was a nice campground. It was semi private for how busy the area is. The waterfalls and hiking trails are great!!

The area is a great place to camp, but the administration of the reservations is a joke. The website mentions that if a spot is not occupied on the second day of the reservation then it is first come first serve, that is not true because the camp host does not keep records of the reservations. All the campsites should be first come first serve like it used to be.

Bring extra toilet paper and buy firewood on the way in. The camp host was nowhere to be found and the lower loop was without tp for two days.
Otherwise a beautiful spot, very family friendly
