This campground is beautiful and is in high demand during summer, and that’s where they get you. Apparently there is no ‘late’ check in even though it doesn’t get dark until nearly 10pm and nevermind that there was road construction that held up traffic for nearly 30-45 minutes. If you arrive there after 8:00pm, the gates will be closed and you will still be charged! By far the worst campground we’ve done business with.
My husband had called ahead to book us for 2 nights, but when we arrived they only had us down for one. Nothing was attempted to rectify the situation or help in any way as they were supposedly booked up for the next night. (They were also 'booked up' the night we stayed, yet the lot directly behind us was empty) So we had to end our vacation earlier than planned. Wish we had been able to stay longer because it was a pretty park, clean, and right next to the free shuttle stop for downtown and the cog railway.
This beautiful gem is well worth a visit. I'm very sad that we were only able to stay here for one night as we were only passing through. The sound of the river flowing behind our campsite and the full moon shining over the mountain was the highlight of my vacation. I will definitely be planning a trip back up here just so that I can stay longer and enjoy this wonderful piece of heaven.
