North Fork Elk Group Camp

Beautiful campground with spacious sites and great privacy. The campsites are spread out enough that you don’t feel crowded, and you can play music without disturbing other campers. Restrooms were clean and well-maintained. Our reserved site was right in front of the bridge by the river, which made the stay even better. Would definitely camp here again. 10/10

Party of 14 - we camped for two nights at the North Fork Elk Group Camp. it was very nearly perfect. As described, this is a tenting group camp site, without electricity or hookups. We had actually had 8 tents, but the 7 tent pads sufficed, since several of the tents were 1 person tents. The site is "multi-level" - meaning that some of the tent pads were uphill from the table area. This meant that our tents had more privacy that some group sites afford. There are really big trees on the site, and the sound of the nearby river was everpresent. There are 4 big picnic tables - plenty of space to spread out for cooking and card games. There is a fire pit that we were able to use (purchasing firewood from the camp host - more on that in a minute). There was also a BBQ that we didn't use.

This is a great campsite. We fit 8 tents on the site (most were smaller tents) although some weren't necessarily on a designated pad. The toilet was a vault toilet but was clean and well maintained, and there was convenient potable water onsite too. We had 8 cars (the limit is supposed to be 6) - I've seen on other reviews that the camp hosts can be strict on this but we didn't have any issues. There are three nice picnic tables surrounding the fire pit. They are all in the hot sun for the main part of the day but have shade in the morning and late afternoons. We walked to the river and put our chairs out in the middle for the afternoon. It was fantastic - not terribly hard to get out there if you use a stick to keep from slipping. The only negative comment was that the main dump

Super cool group campground nestled in the woods. Quite a few kid-friendly hikes in the area, and a freezing cold river to dip your feet in.
