Off the beaten path. The campground is perfect for someone who likes true camping. There is a little road noise, but there is also noise from the big rushing creek. The trails are well maintained. The sites are spacious and well layed out. Great river rock walls and steps. A lot of work went into creating this campground. The bathhouse is clean. The creek/river, the hiking trail, the overlook, the proximity to Max Patch and Hot Springs is all fantastic.

Read moreGreat place to camp. The stone work that was put into this place back in the sixties is just incredible! Every site is unique. Hiking includes a short hike to the lookout into the gorge of Spring creek (Great view), then to a really old cemetery on the ridge top. Kids enjoyed that late night hike. A moderate hike down to the creek is totally worth the trip. Good trout fishing and wildlife viewing. Clean and working restrooms. Bring the bikes for the kids! The campground loop is a ton of fun.
