The good and the bad
The host was friendly and accommodating, but a couple of things I feel need to be addressed the bathrooms were clean every day, but the two showers they had in the guy's control knobs were not working, and one shower barely had any pressure. The girls only had one of the two working. It was very tight, close to campsites, but the river was Beautiful. Besides that, it is close to sleeping Bear Dunes and the Platte River, as well as great bike trails. Another thing not mentioned in the description was that you are not allowed to have a tent on the river sites, so we needed to rent a separate site, which cost us an extra $500 for the stay along with our campsite. And we didn't get reimbursed for the additional car that we were charged for when we initially booked it for one campsite, which should've been included when we purchased the second campsite. Other then that i think it is a good csmpground overall. Dean

The staff was friendly and responsive when I mentioned that the camp site was missing a fire ring and picnic table. They brought the two items over within minutes. The bathrooms were clean.

The site was a bit small and there was no picnic table, which neither would stop us from going back. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the bathrooms were clean. The campground was in a good location, near stores and other attractions, everything was easily accessible. I really enjoy my time there and would go back again anytime we want to visit that part of our beautiful state!

The camper was clean and nice enough however the hot water did not work and there was very little space at the site. We didn't have the time to try to figure out the hot water so not sure if it would have been addressed if we complained but when I checked out and mentioned it there was no apology or attempt to resolve. The location right on the river near the back area was cool and nice that it was away from Hwy 31 but the bathhouse near our camper was shut down for most of the stay and we had to go a long way to get to the main one. Not awful but just OK :)

Tent camping was rather nice at Winding River. Facilities were clean and the owner / staff were very accommodating. Bring a fire grate for cooking if you like to cook over the fire. Otherwise, very happy with my stay.
