“We also got lucky that the neighboring sites were all really quiet.”
Keith C ★ 5 · Jul 2025Great campsite with great shade. Not all of them had good tree cover but ours did and it was 90s during the day so we got lucky. Overall, this is a really clean campground with no trash. Easy to get in and out. We used it to stage for dirt biking and the trails in the area are top notch. We also got lucky that the neighboring sites were all really quiet. Made it enjoyable to spend time in the woods without anyone blasting music until 2am. The Yuba River is right across the highway and a great spot to cool off and relax. No showers and 2 vault toilets. They also had large dumpsters to dump trash which was nice not having to carry it out. We will certainly be back again next year.
Javier J ★ 2 · Jul 2025The campground was great — the location is beautiful and not too crowded. The staff were very friendly, and the bathrooms were exceptionally clean. They came every day to clean and take out the garbage, which we really appreciated. Unfortunately, we had neighbors next door who played loud music on a speaker until midnight and weren't very cooperative when we asked them to turn it down. It would be nice if there were a bit more control or enforcement around quiet hours.
Tiffany P ★ 5 · Jun 2025I liked our spot 12 was wonderful

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.
Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (2,359 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
