Great place, well maintained.

What a wonderful location, well worth needing to carry in our gear! Big open fields, beautiful treed spots, big covered picnic area, nice fire pits, and really clean vault toilets! On top of that, Matt (the Park Ranger) was great, and stopped in to check on us on the first day!

This was a beautiful campsite, however the gate at the entrance to the site was locked, so we could not drive the half mile from the parking lot to get to the campsite. This site was not listed as a hike-in site, and there had clearly been cars there recently because we saw fresh car tracks in the dirt. The gate was simply not unlocked for us on the day of our reservation which made the camping experience much less enjoyable. The details on the site are skimpy, I would have loved to know more about the site before packing and camping here. It is a lovely site, far removed from anything so it’s nice to be isolated, but we had no idea it would be a single campsite in the middle of the woods-thought it’s be part of a larger campground with a ranger or someone helpful to let us in. The site has ample grassy spots for tents, vault toilets, a charcoal grill, a pavilion with several picnic tables under it and hooks for hanging lanterns. This would have been 5/5 if the gate had been unlocked and the listing were better detailed.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

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!!!
