Customer Reviews
Goose Creek Campground is a good, small campground with ten tent sites, most of them next to Goose Creek. While we were there, it was very quiet and we had lots of privacy. There are two Vault Toilets, both clean, and no trash removal, so you have to pack out your own trash. The sites also have fire rings and grills, but as of when we were there, for three days beginning July 11, 2018, there is a burn ban in effect, so please don't use them. This is the only campground in the area that was untouched by the Hayman Fire, the effects of which you can see just by walking a couple hundred feet up the road. No reservations, the sites are on a first come, first serve basis, and it's a self-service pay station. A camp host is on site, but he doesn't have anything to do with occupying a space. Maximum stay is 14 nights. Each site is a maximum of two vehicles, two tents, and eight people. $22.00 a night, and a third vehicle costs seven bucks. It's seven dollars for day only use, but campers have priority. It's a very pretty place, despite the nearby fire damage. We liked it, and would definitely return at some point.
Great camp. Stay for 2 nights. $ 22 per night. Very clean. Camp host is really nice. Water, no garbage service. Great trail nearby - Goose Creek. Also went to mine, looking for topaz.
Absolutely an oasis in the middle.of old fire scars. The drive into the campgrounds is beautiful but could be unnerving for some. The switchbacks get tight and traffic moves in both directions. The fact that it's bear country deters many from camping so it was super quiet as well. The creek that runs right next to most of the campsites holds small pike and is said to have brook trout, I can only attest to the pike since it was all I caught. Pristine waters make for fun fishing and a great place to cool off! Come prepared as it's about an hour from any grocery or supplies. 10/10 highly recommend!
Amazing country side but very dangerous conditions when snowing and below freezing ... as of Mar 2nd here is the drive by
Just finished a 3 night trip with two families. Clean facilities, amazing location along the river. Arriving on a Thursday for the weekend is smart as weekend are busy. Would recommend to anyone looking to get away in under 2 hours. No cell reception, which was a plus!
