This is a beautiful, well-tended forest service campground, high in the tall pines and right next to a rushing river. Restrooms were clean and handy. The highway up was very good. Two small things: we didn’t realize there was a turnaround at the end of the road which would have made backing into our space much easier. And we were advised not to bring firewood from our home state and that the campground host would have some for sale but by the time we arrived the CG host was long gone and at a campground down the road. It would have been nice to have a fire but we were fine in our camper. High altitude and cold at night!

this is an excellent campsite, all sites are well positioned and not too close to each other. The camp hosts were super friendly and the toilets were the cleanest I have ever seen at a campground.
thanks for a great experience.

What a fabulous campground!! All the sites are right along the stream and far enough away from each other. We drove up to another forest service road and saw moose chomping on willow.

Coming down the mountain we never saw a sign and ended up having to backtrack from Buffalo. Tried to look on the way out the next day and didn't see the sign either (it's across from the YMCA camp). The campground was clean and on a nice little stream. When the morning we found a cigarette butt in our firepit that definitely wasn't there the night before so that was a little creepy.

- 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.
