TravelerGambrill State Park
We stayed one night while traveling through. Had an electric site. All the sites are nicely laid out and level. Showers are clean and nice. We will be back to spend more than one night. Bear warnings but says risks are low.

Little and cute.
RangerScenic and family friendly
Camp site (Tent camping)
We were at the group camping ground which was big and open, and had a pavilion for co-use. A little too open it seemed, but there are other sites that are a bit more enclosed. Have to walk from the parking spot to the camp ground. No hookups to electricity or water. Camp host right across from us was friendly!
Facilities / Amenities
Bathrooms were well maintained and you can get firewood ($5, cash) from near it.
Surrounding area
The trails to the overlook was easy enough for the kids too. Took us about 40 mins to walk up the trail. The view from the overlook was stunning.
