Good campground. I stayed in site ,006 which had sufficient privacy. Lot of tree around. Ground was flat to lay down the tent. There was a fire pit with metal grate on top for grilling but sadly there was fire ban Pit toilets were suprisingly clean ( for a pit toilet) though a bit smelly on couple occasions...there is a drinking water spigot near by. You can walk to the river which was pretty shal... Good campground. I stayed in site ,006 which had sufficient privacy. Lot of tree around. Ground was flat to lay down the tent.

You can walk to the river which was pretty shallow so we could not fish there. Lots of mosquitoes...take bug spray..

Old growth forest; spacious, private sites with lots of understory. Our camp hosts, Jason and Michelle, were amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable ... just the best. They work hard to keep the place pristine and it shows. We will be back.

Return trip. Love these campgrounds. They are well taken care of, clean, and the bathrooms smell fantastic (all things considered). Definitely worth a quick drive over Chinook Pass for some quiet camping by the stream.

Excellent facilities. Arrived Saturday, left Monday morning. Vault toilets, stinky but that's a given. Otherwise clean. Campground (26) was so awesome. Right next to the river. Beautiful ecosystem. Tons of neat lichens. Watch out for the large crickets - great grig. They're a little spooky to .. well. Anyone. 😂😂😂 Seeing how the forest is recovering from the fires is fascinating.

This is a great little campground. It has access to the American River which can be easily waded in summer. The area near the river can get loud. It’s a short drive up to Chinook Pass where there is unbelievable wild flowers and views of Mt Rainier in late July and early August. Lots of good hiking.
