If you fish, you can't beat the location of this campground to Barrier Dam or Blue Creek on the Cowlitz. If you don't fish, I have absolutely no idea why you would put up with this campground when there are so many nicer ones in the area with better facilities, well maintained, and customer service that | |
doesn't make you want to pull out before you've even pulled in. I've stayed here twice. If the second time hadn't been with a group, I wouldn't have come back (and I won't be back again after my last trip). In 4 days we rolled over

The campground isn't clean and they obviously don't put much of the money they're collecting back into the place. Bathrooms are out of order and missing toilet paper constantly, picnic tables are falling apart, their rates are outrageous for what you get, there are a bunch of junkie campers and trailers on-site that make the whole place look trashy, and on top of all that, there's a ''security'' gate in the front which means you have to get out of your car every time you want to enter or exit. And from what I've | |
