GuideThis is a nice quiet place. Near city limits where there is places to buy groceries, gas, or go out to a restaurant. They have about 20 spots with electrical outlets. It would be good to call and ask if you can stay, where it is a fairgrounds.

We are camping across America in a tent with our young toddler and 2 dogs. This place was great, clean, well kept, nice flush toilets with soap and working sinks. the pool was fantastic although entry to the pool is not included in your camping fee so be prepared to pay extra to get in the pool but totally worth it. Sites were close together with little privacy but flat. We had no shade at our spot but some of the other sites had more shade. Should have been more aware of that when we were looking at the map to pick our camping location.
We did see a coyote at the edge of the campground but our Great Pyrenees told him to keep moving.
We had so much fun here with our toddler and will definitely be staying when we come back through in the future.

Neither RV dumps has water to help flush tank. Generally speaking going downhill from what it was a few years ago. Horses everywhere and they do not stay in riding areas. Loose youngsters on ATVs screaming around the park everywhere. Sad to see such a great resource abused and go to waste.
GuideWe arrived the Wednesday after Labor Day. We were given a full hookup spot in a giant field area all to ourselves! Our spot backed up to a small running creek filled with fish. The field had corn hole and horse shoe games set up. We enjoyed the hot spring fed pool. Again, we were the only ones there. The pool is huge! We also enjoyed a great burger cooked at the grill in the office. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Guide
We stayed in the campsite overlooking the lake and accross the road. There are about 7 campsites all with metal pole building type shelters and picnic tables. Each site also provides a fire ring.
One of the downsides to the campground is the proximity to the road. There was a number of loud vehicles and loud locals that kept us awake. We were staying in a tent, but if you are staying in an RV this might not be a problem.
It was a good site for the price.
The lake was down and unavailable for fishing. It might be better early spring or summer.
GuideEasy to get in and out of. Beautiful location and great host’s. The pool is old but very refreshing. You feel isolated but you’re close to town.
GuideNice camping areas. Close to great fishing. River sites. Bring bug spray
GuideVery clean very friendly. Shaded and close to swimming pool
TravelerI booked Indian Springs last minute because nearby campgrounds with reviews were full. But Indian Springs deserves a review! Spacious, full facilities. Lots of open area, with room for games and kids. Vintage hot spring swimming pool on site. Friendly staff. Convenient freeway access. Pleasant setting.
TravelerThis campground isn’t much, but it is perfect for anyone needing to find a place fast and free to either tent camp or sleep in their car. It also has water access so boaters are able to unload their boats here. There are bathrooms and it is fairly quiet at night.

Great place to camp right by the river. Good fishing and my kids loved floating the river. Need to bring canopy or have awning for shade.

We wanted to try this out with our 28' bumper pull. Luckily it was not a busy weekend, we had to move sites to one that would accommodate. Hard to maneuver in the campground as well as getting up the narrow road. Perfect site for tents. Tons of shade and trees. There's a really cool spring and waterfall just a short hike up the road. We will be coming back with our friends.
GuideI love all of the fish we caught out of there

This campground is a little bit of a drive to get to, but it is well maintained and has great hiking trails.
TravelerBathrooms and developed campsites with plenty of trees and a creek running through it!
TravelerMy boyfriend and I stopped here on a pass through overnighter on our way to Montana. The campsite is slightly confusing, as road the takes you into the small campground, but also takes you out, to basically nowhere... so don't follow the road to far. Blink, and you'll pass the 5 campsites that are here. Mosquitoes are bad. Having an outhouse is nice, though there was no toilet paper stocked. There is a boat ramp for early morning fishing if need be. This place was sketchy because there was people driving by all night... not sure what that was about.
TravelerThere are many pay to park camp areas around here and also some free areas if you’re adventurous enough! Lots of land to explore and fishing is great!
LegendThis cabin needs to be reserved first and foremost. The # can be found in the pictures. It is close to the reservoir of you need to cool off and there is also the creek which runs right next to it! It has picnic tables and a bbq grill and sleeping space inside for a few people
Traveleron the way to the campground you will travel down dirt roads that are full of scenic views. when you get to the sites it is hard to choose if you want to be right next to the water where you can fish for trout or remain tucked in the woods. both are peaceful and leave society behind.
