The view from our campsite was incredible! We loved how close the bathroom was and how kind the hosts were. Our only complaint was the noise from the trains and traffic from the road, which is out of the control of the host. Overall, we had a great experience and would certainly camp again!

We stayed on ‘Sunny’, which was indeed sunny! A good level pitch and nice views. We didn’t make use of any of the campground activities but they all looked good, lots of effort has gone into making this place. The pit toilet by the tent spots was fabulous! Warm welcome at receiption and Mark responded via text when needed. Bring bug spray and don’t be dim like us and book sunny if you want shade, and you’ll have a great time! Thanks

Stay Here!!!

Tent · With pets ·

I can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s obvious that the owners put so much care and effort into this campground. The waterslide is awesome, the giant paddle is quirky, the interpretive trail is so much fun, and it’s nice to have trails and a waterfall right there on the campground. Yes, the mosquitos were bad. But they’d just as be bad at any other campsite in the area, so I’m not sure why people are giving mixed reviews based off the mosquitos. You’re within 2 hours of 4 amazing national parks. I stayed here for 6 days, but wanted to stay longer! Even if you spend a chill day at the campground, you could fill your entire day with activities right there on the property. I will absolutely stay here again next time I’m up in the area!

This was amazing with really friendly staff. Sites are spaced well apart, good amenities, and the slip n slide is awesome too.

Overall a nice camping experience. Camping spots are not overly private, but all the amenities are more than accessible. Hot water showers were nice to have, especially after hitting the cold slip and slide, twice. We paddled the Columbia River loop down from the campsite which was super gorgeous. Firewood is 1 dollar a piece, so if you can bring in your own, do that. Otherwise, reception was super nice and helpful and this is a very accessible campsite just off the highway! When we went, there are a TON of mosquitos, so be prepared for that as well.

We love tent camping here! Site #5 is the most private. Just be mosquito ready.

It's a lovely place! Very nice location. Easy to find and to navigate around. The amenities included everything you need and even more: well equipped kitchen, clean washrooms and showers. The host was very friendly. One thing that wasn't too comfortable is the loud music played until very late from the barn, where the amenities were located. It was really hard to enjoy the sounds of nature when the music is playing that loud nearby.

Chill Weekend Getaway - Sept 2025

16 ft car ·

The campground was easy to find with lots of amenities and fun activities to keep busy with. We stayed at site #5 which was clean and private with lots of surrounding trees and a good size for my large SUV and a pickup truck with our kayaks. We chose to explore the wetlands on our own but I wish there was more information/signage readily available for where to park, doc, and kayak as we didn't get a chance to speak with anyone from the campground while we were there. Using the electronic maps provided on the website and messages with the hosts, we were eventually able to figure it all out and had a lovely kayaking journey. The worlds largest paddle was beautiful but again, not much signage and could easily be missed driving by which would be sad as it was a cool stop. Next time we stay here we will definitely check out the disc golf course, walking trails, and the slip and slide pond. All in all this would be a great place to stop whether you have kids or are adults looking for a fun weekend adventure.

I loved everything about this place! I was just making a quick stop, but it would be great for families or even a family reunion and while I was there, it looks like they were planning an event Barn. It was lovely. Bring bug spray is my only recommendation.

Amazing place!! It’s a bad mosquito year so you can’t avoid them be prepared but the slip in slide and the ripe swing was the coolest thing ever.

The campsite was large and clean, with two firepit areas and a picnic table. There were plenty of amenities and things to do in the campground as well.

This campground was one of our top highlights of our trip! Mark was so nice and accommodating. He gave us a map of his land and gave us some recommendations to check out. We ended up staying at site #1 and it was 10/10 beautiful, it had a stunning view. The waterslide and rope swing was so much fun! We made some great memories with another camper we met there. The land itself if just stunning and worth exploring around. Mark had created so many fun and unique areas for his guests. We will definitely be returning!

Super cool but BAD MOSQUITOES!

15 ft campervan · Group trip ·

Place was really neat from a concept perspective - fun and creative activities (super long water slide into a pond, disc golf), nice camp spots with nicely kept spaces. Bathroom barn was really neat - rustic but cute and super clean. The ONLY negative - but a big one - was the mosquitoes. There were SO many of them that we just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. Our teens wouldn’t shower there because they were afraid of getting eaten alive. My husband and I did use the showers and they were super clean and it wasn’t too bad, but yes we did get bitten. We learned that mosquitos are bad all over Golden, so I’m not sure anyone can do anything about it - but I have to mention it because it was such a big deal for us. We could enjoy the space because of this. It’s too bad because the place is really neat otherwise and the area beautiful.

The campground was great and had just a great of a view. There was a bit of mosquitos here, but becomes less of an issue with a campfire or just long sleeves and pants. They do offer a variety of activities on site and off. We did the canoe trip and was well worth it. Overall, it was well worth the value.
