ScoutThe camp host was super friendly and knowledgeable, dog access is a plus, and a ton of trails nearby. Plus, the road itself on the way up is very well maintained. Hope to stop by again soon!
ScoutNo restroom for lower sites close to water. You have to walk up the campground road which is too far when you "have to go". We thought there was a shortcut trail but it didn't go through to the lower road - it ends in a private campsite.
The most challenging part of this Campground is trying to fit more than one tent in a site. There are designated tent camping pads, likely because it's a rocky area that they've had to clear for tents. You can pretty much squeeze two tents in there together for single campers but if you're a family or there are three or more friends in your group you're not going to be able to fit your tents without getting two sites. Since this is the first come first serve Campground, which we absolutely need more of in this state, it's up to the luck of the drive whether you'll find two sites together. If I had to ask for improvements I would say at a restroom to the lower loop by the Waterfront sites and try to increase the flat ground area in each site to be able to add everyone's tents.
Now with that out of the way, I camp here every year and have had varying experiences from Super peaceful amazing weekends with lots of wildlife sightings to full-on middle of the night domestic abuse happening in the campground with no police or host intervention. For 2025 I would say we had the best and friendliest host who made sure to come over and introduce us and let us know what was up in the area and which weeds to watch out for that were either toxic to human or dogs. The sites were really in great shape, cleared of obnoxious weeds & trash and probably the cleanest I've ever seen the bathrooms at this at this campground.
TravelerAbsolutely beautiful! Very welcoming and queer friendly! The yurt was lovely but it’s definitely meant for the cooler months. However, the celestial yurt had electricity and a little fan that kept it cool even on the hottest week of the summer. Hot tub is wonderful but is clothing optional, so maybe not great for families. But it’sperfect for couples! The camp is about an hour from the north side of the mountain but still pretty close to some great hiking trails! Only thing is there’s not a lot of of privacy in between sites and construction is going on most of the day and is very loud.
ScoutThis is our first trailer camping trip ever so we wanted to start small and close to home. We first arrived with only knowing the basic and Mike the grounds master was more than happy to help us park and hook up. He was super nice and answered all of our questions. The park is small but not crowded and had all the hook ups needed for our first camping trip! Highly recommend Mike and his park!
TravelerPulled up late on a Wednesday night and easily found a spot. Large campsites, well maintained, but close to road so if you’re a light sleeper you might want to try to find a spot a bit deeper.
TravelerBeautiful spot. Campgrounds facing the water are probably the nicest, but generally this is a really beautiful spot. Spacious sites, clean water, decent bathrooms.
ScoutGame Farm Wilderness Campground sounds like a perfect escape! Nestled in Auburn, WA, it offers year-round camping with RV hookups, riverside views, and group-friendly spaces. Pro tip: Book early—reservations open January 1st! Fun idea: Bring the Rice Purity Test as a campfire game—it’s a hilarious 100-question quiz to bond with friends.(Score comparisons over s’mores? Yes please!😆)
