"green river, which was enjoyed by all, and we appreciated avoiding the main entrance besieged by spring break campers!"
GuideOverall, we enjoyed our experience. It's a nice campground. The site was small and we prefer more space and seclusion since we travel with dogs. We stayed in site 94, which was on the water and nicely shaded. There was no cell service. Our camper has a wifi booster so we were able to boost the signal to our phones from the nearby bathhouse that had wifi. The campground is very remote, but it doesn't feel remote because of how busy and open it feels.
RangerStaff is very nice and informative.
Close to Mammoth National Park…we were lucky to book a tour and it was really good, our teenagers liked it. We also rode Alpine slide across the street near the RV park.
Campground had small catch and release pond. Lots of nibbles, one catch…sunfish. No laundry here…laundry mat 10 mins away, Wash n Fold? Super clean but expensive with nice machines. No bathroom there! Connected to car wash if you need. Bath house at Campground has everything you need but dated.
Our site had issues, no fire ring,,,other sites had one, we didn’t ask about getting one…it probably wouldn’t have been a big deal to grab one from another site. Our parking area was level with gravel. Our water hookup was weird…it ended up under our back bumper were we had to crawl under to connect. And we had issue with 50 amp…the plug needs attention…it turned off at 0430 and we switched to 30amp. No big deal with any of it, but all together we will pick a different site next time.
TravelerFriendly staff and plenty of Amenities.
TravelerThis is a very nice, clean campground. Bathrooms are clean as well. Very nice view of Barren River lake too. I did not use it but there is a nice sand beach for swimming. Camphost is very nice.
ScoutWe spent three nights mid July. It was hot. Hiked the devils dive overlook trail.
ScoutWhat a disappointment and I’ve heard so many wonderful things about this campground. I checked in at the appropriate time. There was no one at the gate, no packet no information. I found my campsite and pulled in quite unlevel due to deep divots in the gravel… used baby wipes embedded in the gravel, foul trash in the fire ring, and the campsite had been vacant according to the website for at least a week Obviously no preparation had taken place. Never saw a Ranger never saw host. I left one day early only to find that they have listed me as a cancellation thereby excluding me from being able to leave a recommendation on their website I’ll not be returning.
TravelerKid friendly park, no mature trees in new section but concrete pad with grill and fire pit. Pool with splash pad, pools, pillow pads, multiple playgrounds, dog parks and kennels are available. Also, lots of golf carts to rent.
