I stayed here for one night in late October. There was no host and trash and water was not available any more but the campground is close enough to town that it didn't matter much for my trip. I had the campground to myself and it was lovely and quiet even with being near by to residential areas.

Clean and quiet. Meridian trail head is within 1 mile walking distance of the camp sites. No showers but there are clean bathrooms and a water pump (muscle powered) to restock water sources. Bring cash for campsite rental.

Great campground! They have the cleanest campground toilets I have ever seen. The lots are spacious and have a good amount of space between them. No electrical hookups or water at each lot but there is a hand pump water well in the center of the campground. The area is beautiful, especially if you are looking for Aspen trees. Tanglewood Trails a few miles down the road was a fantastic hiking area.... Great campground! They have the cleanest campground toilets I have ever seen.

The camp host was very helpful and sells bundles of firewood if you need it. I would definitely camp here again.

I had a great stay at Meridian Campground this past weekend! Friday night I had it to myself and Saturday there was another tent setup, but I never saw them!! Everything was super clean, especially the bathrooms!! Lane, one of the hosts stopped by and gave me some close hiking suggestions. My only complaint is that there was no water in the campground. They had it locked because of some issues.... I had a great stay at Meridian Campground this past weekend!

Had I known I would have been better prepared, but it all worked out. If I’m ever back in the area, will definitely stay there again!
