No water or electricity at site. We had to leave after an overnight stay.

Better suited for campers/rv. Limited places for tents. Camp host was great.

I drove to this camp from Delaware to watch the April 2024 eclipse. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and the camp was very clean. The dam and the waterway were beautiful! We had a very restful and much needed vacation and would love to come back. Thank You!!

Great except for the burn ban that prevented us from having a campfire. Host was wonderful.

Pros: Extremely friendly, helpful staff. Close to dam with beautiful views. Two pads to utilize. Covered outdoor seating. Partial shade. Stairs nearby to walk down to water. Adequate area for dogs to relieve themselves near the site. Cons: Water hookup is 60' away. Electric hookup is set up alongside the short pad that our RV couldn't fit in. We used 2 30-amp cords and 1 extension cord to reach. Fishers constantly walked through our campsite and over both cords. High traffic was fairly off-putting and uncomfortable. Little to no cell service, no free tv channels, or radio stations. Would come here again but not utilize this particular site.

Small, quiet campground along the river below Nimrod Dam. Staff are extremely nice. Although the literature says there water hookups, they aren't available at every site.
@BrianV1669583 · Camped on Apr 3, 2023 at Campsite #10
The hosts, Bonnie and Mike were lovely and very accommodating. It’s a beautiful campground at the base of a dam with a great picnic areas and a playground. Don’t forget to stop at Hollis Country Store just down the way from there.
@AaronG8445754 · Camped on Mar 21, 2023 at Campsite #14
This was a pull through site and was very easy to get into but you are not very far from the road that goes to the other campsites.
@TamaraS6791644 · Camped on Nov 20, 2022 at Campsite #14
Nice, clean and quiet.
@MelodyW2498090 · Camped on Sep 1, 2022 at Campsite #9
Bonnie and her husband were the best! It ended up storming on us so we had to leave a day early but we will definitely be back.
@AaronG8445754 · Camped on Jul 2, 2022 at Campsite #13
We love this campground but it may not be for all people. There is very little cell service if any at all for AT&T. Other carriers may be different. It’s quiet except for the steady stream of fishermen but it really seems to calm down later in the evening. Nimrod dam is amazing and our kids love to go on it and look over the high side at all of the turtles and the low side at the waves from high waters. The attendants are awesome and do not really bother you which is amazing to us introverts. The only downside is that it seems like a lot of people do not take care of the campsites as much as they should. We stayed within two weeks of each other at the same site and each time had to clean out the semi burned trash and pick up quite a bit of trash just thrown around. Overall it’s a great campground and we go as often as we can.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
