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.

Brought my daughters and they absolutely loved it, all I can say is you have some young ones that like a movie at bed download a couple movies on a phone or tab no signal at all.

On The evening of August 31, space 21, a double space, had a giant party where the participants were drunk and rowdy late into the night. Unfortunately, the Forest Service host was not in the camp that night. This site disturbed everybody in the campground and we were powerless to do anything about it.
Don’t understand why the forest service wouldn’t have a back up when host is off.

My husband and I took a 17 foot trailer. We had a great time! Saw the falls and rode our electric scooters all over.
My Daughter, Son in law and grandkids brought their 29 foot trailer and loved the place! They made it down to the falls and absolutely loved that. The beauty in person is just breath-taking! I hiked the trails with the kids. So much fun.
We had site 41, which I liked because it has an upper spot with the table and campfire. My Daughter had 36 which fit their rig perfectly. Next time we would have her get the site next door, I think it's 38, because it connects with 41 by a very short back trail.
Only complaint would be the road still isn't fixed. A little bit scary but doable.
FYI...No showers, or internet, which was totally fine. Outhouses only and Pump water.
It's a fantastic place and we will be going again!

I was delayed by 3 hours to get to my spot as someone had not left that camp site and was no where to be found according to the camp host and nothing was offered to me to come in and hang, park, or an offer of another site temporarily. When I finally did get to my site I was pre-arranged to stay at designated site and it was next to a site that had over 15 people 3 tents, kids, adults and dogs and they went hard all night and through the early morning hours of 3am. There was no response from anyone to keep them to adhere to the quiet times of the camp. It was a very horrible experience and they need to get it together in there to maintain order and accommodate those, like me that drive over 6hrs to get there. Trash was overflowing on tops of garbage cans, all throughout the trails and my site was full of campfire debris not maintained or cleaned.

Took my 7 and 11 year old boys here in early August and absolutely loved it. Lower level falls was amazing. It wold water but the kids swam anyways. Be super careful on the road in Because of the serious potholes and crazy dips in the road..seriously take it slow on that road. Clean camp site, quiet, bathrooms stayed clean but we did go on a weekday. FYI this place is crazy hard to get a reservation but there are some other non reservation spots along the road and creek just up the road that looked nice for the adventurous type

This is my childhood favorite camping spot. There is no place like it. I’m completely blown away, however, at the traffic and number of people flocking here. It can’t be good for the environment.
