We had a great time camping at Pound River. Love the area, only three requests one is to have a playground for the kids, also the trees and logs removed from the banks near the campsites so people can fish near the campsites, and have better access to internet in case of emergencies.

We always enjoy the area, camp hosts are always helpful and friendly. I have a few suggestions, as my family camps only on pound river year after year since I was a child. A play ground needs to be put back along with some sort of internet or Wi-Fi service. I have a son in the army one weekend a month , travels almost 9 hours, and I can not receive calls and must re direct then to dispatch for the camp host to get. We also have disabled children that can not sit in a regular swing , that would be nice to see one placed with the swings now there. That’s just some suggestions. Point broad band has been running lines all over the county maybe that would be something to look into. Pound is the only place in the area we will stay, we love Jackie and Gary, they are awesome hosts. And we love to see our park rangers. They are always nice.

The lake was 10 ft lower than summer level. I don't blame anyone no one can make it rain. The reason I like the campground I can park my boat at my campsite. The drive to the marine to lanch boat was a 50 minute drive. If I had known the water level was this low I would have made other plans In the past I would give the campground excellent review. I am sorry I couldn't this year

Great campground! Sites have nice view of the lake. Only a few minutes from town, but feels remote. Camp host is very nice and great to talk with. Would go back again.

Very nice campground. Bathhouse and grounds were clean and host was friendly and helpful. Bring your bug spray since you are right on the River.

My wife and I live here the Pound River Campground and is very convenient for us to go there. The weather was perfect and our neighbors was very nice. Our campsite was clean and well maintained. If anyone likes to go camping and fishing Pound River Campground is the place to be. The river is right behind your campsite and you can hook up your boat and not have to worry about it going anywhere. We wish that the Core of Engineers would extend the time closing into the early fall season so, that new visitors can experience the fall colors of the trees and our wildlife.

The whole campground is covered in Goose poo. Can't let your puppy out for it and you track it everywhere it was AWFUL.

@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!!!
