What Guests Are Saying

South Fork campground offers spacious sites with stunning views, clean facilities, and a peaceful atmosphere, making it a top choice for campers. Guests appreciate the attentive and friendly camp host, Debbie, who maintains the bathrooms impeccably. The nearby trails and creek add to the campground's charm, although some sites are close together, and there are occasional concerns about fire pit maintenance.

Out of the eight different campgrounds we stayed at during our outwest trip, this one was our favorite. It's very quiet and isolated and that's what we were looking for. The trail at the end of the tent. Camping area was a nice way to unwind after a long drive. We had no cell service but our starlink worked great. Check in was easy. Went straight to our site and it didn't require any interaction, but the host seemed available if we needed them. Of course flush toilets and a shower house would have been nice but the vault toilets are very clean and did not smell at all. Wish we could have spent more time here but only had one night. I hope we can come back one day.

Quiet, wooded campground next to a creek. Our site was level and easily accessed. The bathrooms were very clean.

We had site 2 which is right by the creek and a very good location. I have a 43 foot fifth wheel and had plenty of room for my RV, long box pickup and side by side. Great host who kept the bathroom very clean.
