My family and I have been coming here for years and we really enjoy our time at Black Bear Campground! The area is always cleaned before arrivals. Restrooms on site are attended to. There is always plenty of firewood laying around for our nightly fires. Plenty of space to house tents and enjoy the outdoors. There is plenty of seating to accommodate our party. Highly recommend camping here if you’re new! Cell phone will vary! We have T-Mobile and it was spotty to no service. Verizon was about 1-2 bars. ATT was about 1-2 bars as well. This was based of family members who had those services.

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!!!
