★★★★★ 5.0 Kelli Gunckle · Nov 2021

Absolutely beautiful. We love coming here and have never had a bad campsite. The solitude and quietness is so peaceful. All you hear are the insects and the river. Some campsites are right off the road and some have little driveways and are more secluded. There is not much traffic on the little dirt road though so 99% of the time you have your privacy. Most sites have a picnic table and all of them have fire rings.

Great primitive sites with fire rings. Most have tables and are situated next to the little stream. There are many hiking trails and Glen Falls near by. Bring fresh water and take your trash with you. Stayed 2 nights and didn't have any animal problems, but they are out there.

★★★★★ 5.0 WDRoberson · Oct 2023

Very good dispersed national forest campground. No fee and very secluded. Max 14 day stay. (normal) Sites have tent pad, fire ring, lantern post.

★★★★☆ 4.0 C Bilyeu · Aug 2025

Different options available, some by the trail to the falls, one by another not named fall, many along the stream, and in the woods. Pack in what you pack out. Dogs on leash. Fire rings at all the sites I've seen. And majority have a cement or gravel pad.

Have been a handful of times now and one of our favorite places to camp!! The drive in is gravel, has blind spots on the curves and is on the narrow side, so be mindful when driving. This time around we were nearly hit head on by the same vehicle speeding while driving in the middle of the road, we’re lucky we didn’t get hit. Every site we’ve camped in so far has been nice and backed up to the river, and also spacious enough to fit two tents if you needed! If you turn right at the info post and keep going it’ll bottom out at the trail head, from there we park in the turn around and hike up Glenn Falls. Reminder to leave no trace and take your trash with you when you go :)
