It has been in our family for many years and we have enjoyed it.Learn more about this land:The campsites are located in a wooded area so lots of shade. 2 sites are creek side along maple creek and the other has a small stream and a pond.

Weekend Trip to Secluded Maple Creek River bottoms

Very quiet and cute camp site that is very close to town. It was a nice quick getaway. There was plenty of room and the sounds of the creek were relaxing. Our only caveat was that we wish we had known the porta potty was only there until mid September.

We loved our one night stay on Ken’s land. It was peaceful and private and we loved the site. The hill to get over to campsite 4 was steep, but doable in an SUV. The porta potty is about a 5-minute walk up and over the small hill, but it was never crowded and was clean. On Sunday morning around 10am we witnessed the bizarre landslide of rocks from whatever they were dumping down the mountain. As other reviewers have said it is pretty strange and happens in decently close proximity to site 4. We just made sure to keep our dog away from that side of the site. We would definitely come back here! We loved it.

We were on site 2 for a night and it was nice! Right next to the creek, it was great to hear it at night. I’ll add to some other reviews about the hill going in and out- we had a Mazda 6 with fairly new tires and were able to get back up the hill alright, but it was still a little scary 😬 so just know that if you don’t have 4 wheel drive and it happens to rain or your tires are bad, it may not be worth the risk!

Beautiful piece of land. This is my families second time here and we love it. We were there on Labor Day weekend and even with all four sites being booked we barely heard or saw any of the others. If you are looking for a place to just disconnect you can’t go wrong picking this place. Ken is a great host and very responsive.

This was a really great private site. The owners wetr lind enough to lead me down to the area. The access road is steep and rocky but fun to drive on. It would be best to have 4wd and this site you cross a creek. The entry is across from the green house at 4514 where the big rock mound is. The toilet was clean too just down a bit next to sites 2 and 3. I enjoyed my stay and had a nice fire. My lab enjoyed being off leash a bit while we were in the site area.

I was able to locate the place easily with my GPS, there is an address posted at the site and the directions provided were clear. I was met upon arrival and offered my choice of locations. I was able to stay right next to the river, there were chairs and benches available along with a very large fire pit. It was quiet and I was able to enjoy sitting by the river. There were some very good suggestions of places to go check out near by, which I did, and they were great.

Great location, mostly secluded. We love how safe and blocked off this area is because we don't worry about our kids playing out of arms reach. Of course we watched them by the creek but the large camp area has plenty of space for them to explore within eyesight. There were other campers there this time (we camped here last year in the fall and it was completely empty) and they didn't obey the quiet hours rule (10 pm) which made it kind of hard getting our kiddos to sleep until almost midnight every night once the music stopped but that wasn't a trip ruin-er for us. We still enjoy our time playing in the creek, hanging out by the fire, and listening to the crickets and awesome nature sounds that we could hear all day and most of the night. We appreciated the porta-potty as well. Will definitely return!

Weekend Trip to Secluded Maple Creek River bottoms

We had a great time camping here! Just a quick overnighter on our way to Blackfoot. We definitely missed the sign to campsite #4 so we ended up driving to the wrong spot at first. Campsite #4 is your first right once you go down the hill off the main road. I’ll echo what’s been said by others that the dirt roads are steep but manageable in an AWD crossover/SUV. Our campsite and bathroom (chemical toilet) were both clean. Be prepared for bugs but they weren’t as bad once we started the fire.
