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.

Better signs letting you know you are close to the campground and maybe a physical address for easier navigation via phone maps. Other than that it was a nice campground and clean vault toilet.

Camp host was wonderful, gregarious, and very helpful! We stayed at two sites at South Fork, and both were great. Small campground, not too busy. The walk-in tent sites were nice to get away from the RV generators. Would absolutely camp here again!

Wonderfully quiet campground along a creek. Great Lake just east of the camp for fishing and kayaking

This is a really nice campground (we stayed in a tent at a walk in site). Every tent site is really nice, it's all pretty well shaded by nice pines and there was lots of room for the kids to run around. You can see all the other campsites, but the creek was loud enough that we couldn't really hear anyone. I think the vault toilet/bathroom was the cleanest one I've ever used, and the camp hostess was friendly, too.
