The campsites were well maintained. I loved being close to the water. It was nice having trash picked up regularly. The bathrooms and showers were so clean and well stocked. I have never been to a campsite that was so well cared for. Thanks!

We have camped several times at Pikes Ridge. Excellent campground! Have told many friends about Pikes Ridge. The camp staff is awesome! The grounds and bath house is very clean & nice! The portable toilets are very well maintained/cleaned as well! Night security is great! We will be back for many campings!!

Very nice park
@CarlY732658165 · Camped on Aug 4, 2024 at Campsite #6
The road getting to Pike's Ridge while recently resurfaced is a bit narrow. Passing when one big camper passes a large boat or another camper is a bit tenuous.The campground experience is 5 stars...no question about it.

Everyone was so nice. Dana had our camp site very clean she works hard all day

The campground, itself was great, as usual, and the addition of a shower house was a welcome site! My only complaint is regarding my neighbors; RVs using the tent sites, running loud generators all night long and all day long. It really does diminish the whole experience of camping next to the lake. I wish people were more considerate of others, and tried to put themselves in other people's shoes. If you are going to run a generator for two days/nights straight, consider getting a camping spot that is not traditionally used for tent camping. You may be cosy in your quiet RV, but those of us in the tents are being tortured by your out-of-date, loud generator.

Beautiful campground with with great views of the lake and nice beach! Our favorite place to camp on Green River. The staff is very friendly and bath house is nice new addition. Wish there were more electric sites as it is very hard to get a reservation. Dump station was full on 4th of July weekend and unable to dump trailer....hopefully a 1 time issue! Never had this issue in the past. Otherwise....great place to camp!!

This campground is excellently maintained and so lovely! Dana and the Campground Volunteers go out of their way to make sure everyone's experience is terrific! We love coming to this campground and all the Corp of Engineers campgrounds - thanks so much!

Pike Ridge is our favorite campground. Quieter and peaceful, situated right on Green River Lake, beach access and boat access and ramp. It also has a bath house now. We love it!
@PeteKA5004151E · Camped on Jun 25, 2024 at Campsite #20
Excellent facility. Two year-old bathhouse epoxy coated flowers for separate rooms easy access to the lake for swimming fishing and boating. One Cove is reserved exclusively for swimming with no fishing or danger of hooks or boats. Another cove is open for fishing and boating. Beautiful sunsets. Extremely friendly. Maintenance ensures spotless grounds. Its come along way since it opened sometime in the early 70s. 20 sites have electric and 40 are primitive.

Some changes have made it to where campers are not happy with the boat parking. Places have been broken for a couple years now and have not been repaired, the Park Ranger says they have no funds. Why is the government taking the money we pay to camp and not letting the parks have it as the Ranger said they are moving the funds to other places and not the upkeep of the Parks. For years we were allowed to park our boats on shore because of the rocks out front damaging our boats so we moved to the side. They no longer permit this and want us to park our boats on the rocks anyway and I was told by the Ranger if I did not like it leave my boat at home. Now campers are getting mad at campers for the few spots we can park without damaging the boat. You move your boat someone will get that spot. Being a senior citizen and disabled I cannot walk very far. Seems they are doing this on purpose and it's just a matter of time before camper rage instead of road rage happens.

Beautiful, CLEAN and friendly environment. Real close to the water where we used the complimentary boat dock each night to dock our pontoon boat. Exquisite sunrise and sunset viewing location. Waking up on the banks of the lake made for a real relaxing trip. Easy to navigate to park and setup our Popup Camper. Fire pit, lantern holder, picnic table with a wide and long drive, and OMG the shade trees kept the heat down as day was long. Its a site that we will reserve again and again on Green River Lake for years to come. My wife and I really enjoyed our 3 night stay at site #7.
@ThomasM8282631 · Camped on Sep 9, 2023 at Campsite #16
Beautiful campground with stunning views of the lake! One of our favorite places to camp!
@MickFB29989514 · Camped on Sep 4, 2023 at Campsite #15
Site 15 great view on the water. Only complaint was the size of rock on the parking pad.
@WILLIAMM503355 · Camped on Jul 11, 2023 at Campsite #16

The Camp Hosts are great and Dana does a fantastic job at cleaning and keeping the campground looking terrific - kuddo's to all of them! Thanks so much for a fantastic camping experience!
@Chrisd8356495 · Camped on Jul 2, 2023 at Campsite #10
I don't like that in the non electric areas you can't run generator all night. I will not come and stay in a non electric spot again. Unless I am able to run generator 24hrs.
@NathanS1860059 · Camped on Jun 30, 2023 at Campsite #47
New bathhouse needs door handles replaced. People kept getting locked in / out Everything else was perfect.
@HenryVC2D7C3E2 · Camped on Jun 29, 2023 at Campsite #2

@stephanie69098 · Camped on Jun 16, 2023 at Campsite #26

@DonnaS6863498 · Camped on Jun 11, 2023 at Campsite #12
Had a great vacation!
@AshleyB6861526 · Camped on Jun 5, 2023 at Campsite #6
Pikes Ridge was amazing! The views from our campsite were spectacular and the playground was close enough that the kids could play while we setup our camper. Perfect for kayaking and fishing as well. Would definitely recommend!

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!!!
