Quiet, Peaceful, and Beautiful

I took my family her last minute on a Friday afternoon thinking there wouldn't be any spots open. To my surprise we got a spot. There is plenty of room between camp spots and it is very well kept. We loved it there. Everyone was very respectful and no ATVs or Dirt Bikes are allowed except for the camp hosts and so it was nice and quiet. It was already fully stocked with wood for us as well. Well worth the $20/night and we will be coming back for sure.

Nice but I couldn’t leave fast enough

I only stayed at the campground for the trails nearby. But the night I stayed it was loud and there’s very little privacy. The trails that I’d come for were very scenic but also packed by 8:30 AM. I should’ve picked a different area as I thought it would be peaceful and it wasn’t. I would not return for either campsite nor trails.

Amazing!

Nick is in charge of the campground, very nice guy and very straight forward (which is great). There are 8 spots total, 12 a night and 6 dollars for extra vehicles. No water, no dumping, no electricity. Right next to the creek, and lots of shady camp spots. Absolutely gorgeous and perfect for camping.

Intimate, beautiful, great fish!

This campground has a small number of lots, and when we were there in July most were filled by RVs. Only one had a noisy generator;) our spot was right next to the roaring Palisades Creek, and a short walk to restrooms. Only 15 bucks a night;)
