Basin Campground — Hotel in Chatham

Had an alright two nights here camping from Sunday-Tues. Campsites are clean, and well-spaced. Restrooms are a few porta-potties. The pond is walkable and gorgeous in a beautiful little bowl of mountains that always seems to catch a cloud. Amazing star-gazing, and I bet there's some great fishing to be had.

However, there's very little presence of anyone "running" the campsite. Our site was reserved online, and was clearly marked out for us, but we did not interact with any staff, and ended up grabbing the last bundle of firewood which wasn't re-stocked on Monday.

Second night had a large group of college-aged kids partying and singing loudly till around 9:30-10-ish (well after sundown), and I'm not sure if they were told to quiet down, or did it themselves.

Also had what I assume was a Chatham local do a drive through in his sedan, racing around the loop with high-beams on and blasting on his horn. Only happened once around 9pm on a Monday night, but was kind of exasperating, and I'm glad no one got hurt.

No swingsets or anything like that for kids, but that's alright for a campground like this. Our 4-year old found plenty of rocks to climb and jump off of, and was able to run around without us feeling like he was...

My wife, our pup, and I spent the past weekend at the Basin Campground. It was a great place to chill out and disconnect. Right at the entrance of the campground is the gorgeous Basin Pond. The night we arrived the dark skies were littered with countless stars, and during our second evening we were treated to a wonderful, colorful sunset.||||The family acting as the campground caretakers during our stay were super friendly and on top of everything around the campground. They were running a top notch little patch of wilderness. All of the sites were spacious yet just private enough to not feel like you were crowded in the woods.||||There are plenty of trails for all abilities in the area to explore as well, making this a great home base for a weekend of hiking. I highly recommend...
