Only down side is that there are small signs that say “one way.” The signs must be too small because there were several campers day and night who went the wrong way. At night they constantly flashes your campground with their lights.
Overall nice site a s look forward to checking out the area more.

I love campgrounds that have scenic views or access to hiking trails without having to drive once you pull into your site. This campground has both. Right next to campsite 8 is a trail connection to the Foster Falls overlook. We continued on to hike a two mile loop. There was beautiful scenery along the way and we watched the rock climbers scale the cliffs. The campsites were nice with many having a decent amount of space between them. Most were level. I would give the campground five stars if the bathrooms were updated.

This is a nice place for couples, families, and pets. It was quiet with nice areas to take walks. We needed the peaceful setting to regenerate before getting back on the road.

Nice little campground with flush toilets and two spigots for water. The campground is adjacent to the Foster Falls hiking trail and waterfall. Bathrooms could use some updating but overall quite functional. Verizon was quite spotty, one bar at best.

Our first time dry camping and this is a great campground to try it out as there was a wonderful campground host and potable water near the site. Not all the sites are easy to back into, and most are set up for tent camping. For example, several sites will have your trailer door on the outside edge of site rather than facing in the way the entrance is laid out. All sites have nice picnic tables and fire rings. We tried to use solar to keep uo the battery but even with leaves off the trees we got very limited solar production in November. We came with water but were close enough to fill from the spigot nearby, which had a threaded connection. Sites all are on a circle around the bathhouse, which is older but was very clean. Men's had one toilet and one shower and two sinks. The week we stayed Sun-Thurs the campground had 4-6 other sites taken. You can walk to the Foster Falls and south end of Fiery Gizzard trails. They are spectacular. You are 8 miles to the nearest town so make sure you have what you need. Fire wood was available from a homeowner on the road in just a quarter mile from the campground, and was not expensive. We got enough for 4 nites campfires for 10 dollars. The website now says this campground is open all year.

We enjoyed our first dry camping experience. Small bathhouse with a single shower was warm, clean and had hot water. Not enough room for large campers. Three of us with small campers this weekend. Otherwise tents. We will be back.

Others have summed this place up well. The only addition I would make is that there is only a single shower stall, and I could see it having lines in busy season.
AT&T coverage was 4 bars LTE, but websites seemed to load slowly.

Great little campground. We camped in a Grand Design 18RKE even though it is a dry campground. Filled with water before we left the house. The site was a little tight to get into but very roomy once inside. No gas generators allowed so allowed for amazingly quite space. Does not appear to campground host on site, space was empty. However, rangers seen time to time and bathrooms were clean. The bathroom has hot showers:) We were the only TT in the park. Had a great time will definitely be on my list to go back.

Foster Falls is in my top 5 favorite places I have been to. The campground is close to the start of the trail to get to the waterfall. I was on site 24, which is a great location as neighbors are pretty far away but behind 24 a little ways back is a house that you can barely see. This house owns a rooster that has no idea when morning is and will "Cock-a-doodle-doo" whenever it feels like it. Sleeping was a pain. The campsite was clean but not sure why they chose rocks as for the pad. Since this is primitive, most everyone was using tents, makes for rough feet.
I gave the cleanliness a 2 star not on the campsite itself but the bathroom. Spiders everywhere, shower looked terrible, just felt very dirty. The nearest planet fitness to shower is 45 mins away.
I will also say, this is my third time visiting, first time camping. If you can, visit not on a holiday (I went on labor day weekend). This park has a vastly different experience when people are around. Both times before, there was a total of 5 people at the falls. This time was close to 100. College kids doing college stuff, which is fine all but if you are more into nature and less "waterhole" atmosphere, I would recommend an off day to visit. Please do visit though. This waterfall is a hidden treasure.
