The campsite was easy to find and very clean. Most notably, Christian, the employee who works there, was nice, friendly and very approachable. Additionally, the staff members who worked with him during our visit did a great job maintaining the cleanliness of the place. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Excellent space to unplug and enjoy the scenic nature and light hiking to see the waterfalls. Highly recommended but come prepared for no showers, pit toilets and no electricity or cell service. I did send a crucial message via satellite so you are not totally isolated.

It was SO quiet and peaceful here! The sound of the water lulled us to sleep. Very clean! Can’t wait to come back and stay longer to explore the area.

I went here with my boyfriend for my birthday trip and it was absolutely breathtaking! Our spot was roomy, came with a picnic table and a fire pit -unfortunately we were unable to use, due to a fire ban- and was secluded from the other campsites. We were a 5 minute walk from the viewpoint of the falls and while getting down to the river is difficult it is totally worth it!

Wonderful campground. The river is beautiful and accessible. Too many people reserve and don’t show up

We stayed in site 3 and loved it. It was very spacious with great buffers between the neighboring sites (can’t even see site 1), the downside was that it was a little challenging finding a flat spot for our large tent it’s 12x15. We ended up putting it near the fire pit, which worked this trip since there was a fire ban and couldn’t use it anyway. There are several spots to place a tent but not sure if maybe smaller ones will be less effected by the very slight slope, overall it wouldn’t stop us from staying at this site again. Honestly we’d be able to stay with multiple tents at pretty much all the sites, they’re all spacious and spread out pretty well! Lots of river access points very close by and even a stroller/wagon friendly boardwalk in one spot that goes all the way to the riverbank above the falls.

The bathrooms are what you’d expect from vaulted toilets, overall the host kept it clean and stocked it multiple times a day. We keep sanitizer and wipes nearby and toss those in the trash after leaving the bathroom.

Beautiful campsite #16. We had room for 8 people and two medium-sized tents. The bathroom was clean but had a lot of flies. There was no water pump, but we brought water. Make sure you bring enough water, or you can go to the river to get water. The trails were very beautiful and moderate.
