Excellent camping spot. Each site has a fair amount of privacy and the falls speak for themselves

Absolutely stunning campground. A bit hard to get to with even a high clearance trailer but doable.

Can't beat the location, the lower falls are gorgeous! The campground and restroom were clean. One water pump was broken, the other barely functional. Bring plenty of your own water!

Well maintained, well managed campground with decent privacy between sites. We were lucky to get a last-minute reservation over the 4th of July weekend (someone must have cancelled). The day use area was quite busy (warm, holiday weekend), but the campers were all friendly, and the night of the 4th was silent...no fireworks. Our pup was blissfully unaware that home was a war zone of fireworks while we had a peaceful time in the forest.

This will become a regular destination for us. Only a two hour drive from home, but feels completely disconnected. The falls are beautiful, and there's a good hike along the river. A great find for sure.

  • Bring your reservation confirmation to the campground.
  • The campground opens in mid-May.

Cancellation policy

  • Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
  • Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
  • Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
    • Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
    • One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
  • Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
  • Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
  • Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
