We camped with about 7 families July 2021 and all had a blast. Even though it was a trek to get there, the campground was beautiful. Sites were all large and well confiugred. We enjoyed the 2 mile hike to the Middle Falls and the easy ascess to Lower Falls. Our 5 year old enjoyed the paved road to ride her bike. The bathroom facilities were clean and not too stinky. We look forward to camping here again.

Large, spacious and private campsites. Very close proximity to the river, especially if you stay in the lower loop.
The camp host/ranger was not friendly - old and grumpy - came over to my site accusing us of throwing something at him. No idea what he was talking about. When we arrived our site was filthy, we had to spend a half hour picking up the trash from the last group.
The falls are beautiful and we will be back to this campground. Just hope that next time there is a change in host.

The area was clean and well kept. No noisy neighbors and even when I heard them it was faint. Keep up the amazing facility!

We've been camping at Lower Falls for over 10 years now. This was easily one of our best visits yet. The new parking permit system has insured great access to all of the trails in the area and kept the crowds down in the campground as well. I know the reservation system isn't perfect and doesn't meet everyone's needs all of the time, but this area was under so much pressure from misuse by visitors that something really needed to be done.
Even with the new system in place, the areas that saw the most human traffic had the all too familiar wads of toilet paper, cans & bottles, and left behind bags of dog poop. Please clean up after yourselves, People. This is not your house. You're guests here.
On the positive side, we saw so much wildlife this visit and I believe it was in no small part due to the lack of human presence. Kudos to the USFS for acting to preserve one of SW Washington's greatest natural recreational resource areas. Future generations deserve to enjoy this space as much as we have.
