Great campground, its especially nice that you cant see or hear your neighbors.

Overall our site was very good. There was running water near some of the sites which is nice. The only negative was that there were a lot of tumbleweeds growing in the spots. We cut a bunch of them down with a shovel but the spots needed a little weed maintenance.

If you want a private experience, off the grid, where you can't see or hear your neighbors, this is the place! We can not WAIT to return.

Great spot for family

Newly redeveloped rustic 9 unit campground. Beautiful setting in the foothills, with each site lined by trees and along a clear and pleasant sounding creek. We happened to be there on a recent July Saturday night, and there were NO other campers. The only disappointment was the water spigot nearest our reserved site was out of order, so we simply selected another unreserved site.

I loved camping here. Very inexpensive spots. It was so serene and easy to find downed camp wood. There were no trails but I enjoyed the stay.

Site 5 is a great spot. However the site itself is across the little bridge from the parking area so be prepared to walk some stuff into the site. It’s not far! The site is big enough for a couple of tents.

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!!!
