John's campsite is a tranquil haven where the sound of a nearby waterfall adds a soothing backdrop to your stay. Many campers appreciate the well-maintained facilities, including clean bathhouses and the convenience of electricity, even if it's limited. Families find the short trail to the treehouse and the creek perfect for kids to explore. However, some visitors note that the campsites are close together, which might reduce privacy during peak times.

This is my second visit to John's campsite. I simply love the peacefulness of this site - lots of shade and a beautiful, calming waterfall. I love sleeping with that sound! The bathhouse is well-maintained! Clean, functional, and nature-friendly. I would camp here again and again!

I initially booked deck #1 but upon arrival I found deck #5 to have the best view of all sites so I reached out to John and asked if we could switch. Since we were the only party to book that day, he let us switch to deck #5. This campsite is truly stunning! The deck was solid and well built. The waterfall was an amazing feature, my kids (19 mos & 5 yrs) loved to play in it. The view from deck #5 is absolutely amazing! Seriously I wondered why this place isnât fully booked already. Loved the trail that leads to a treehouse. It was easy and short (about 20 mins one way), perfect for family with kids. John was responsive during our entire stay.
However, there are a few cons. The sites are quite close together, properly about 15-20ft apart. I imagine if it was fully booked, itâd be a little crowded. Electricity is very limited, it runs off of batteries so runs out quick. Water also doesnât seem very clean, it has a dark color to it, itâs properly rain water. We used a lot of wet wipes to clean ourselves instead of using the water.
Overall, extremely beautiful and clean campsites. It rivals some of the best state park campsites we have been to thatâs always fully booked months ahead. We would love to be back with friends! Easy 9 out of 10.

DECK NEAR CREEK #5 w Fire Ring
We loved our weekend stay at this site! The elevated platform was nice for our tent to keep off of the dirt. Waterfall was the best white noise for sleeping. Bathroom did the job and didnât smell bad. Electricity worked well. Treehouse was amazing! Another camper found an arrowhead, likely from the Squaw. Only drawback was the road to get to the site because it had rained and was muddy but my 2 wheel pickup had no issue. If a car canât use the road, you will just have to hoof it. Overall great campsite.

This was a beautiful and safe spot for my first solo camping trip. Very quiet spot and the waterfall is beautiful. So much to explore and see. I never left the property and still didnât see everything! Would highly recommend.

Great place to relax, the views are incredible. Itâs a huge plus to have access to a shower and electricity.
We went hiking and explored the property.
We even got to go fishing.
100% recommended!
