Debbie the camp host was awesome. I liked that she checked to make sure people are where they are supposed to be. It was quiet and beautiful, clean. Reservation system was easy to use. Can’t wait to go back.

Site #3, right on the river. One of the best campsites we’ve EVER experienced and been camping for most of my 70 years

Great camp. Quiet, clean, and beautiful. We were approached a few times and asked if we were the camp hosts because we stayed at site 1, but the camp host was at South Fork. There wasn't any way people would know this without interacting with the camp host or with someone that would know that information . It appeared they were looking for a camp host, but didn't fill it for Middle Fork.
It wasn’t a big deal at all. We enjoyed camping in BNF at Middle Fork Campground very much.

  • 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.
