Sites are well maintained. Bathrooms were immaculately clean without odors. Water pump easily accessible. Access to creek right from camp site, (#3). Love Bad Bear. Easy camp with family. Hint: site #3 is a double site which explains the higher cost.
It's small. Only small trailers can use. Perfect during week. No real hiking trails in campground area.
Great spot to camp, awesome roads to get there. Primitive toilet but nice building and clean. Fire pit with grill, and picnic table.
This place is unbelievably beautiful I sat down by the river with my friend and we cooked up some sausages and pickles and it was just a wonderful place for a break if I had a fishing license I would have thrown in water and maybe caught a trout lots of birds flying around it was just a gorgeous place go see it I give it a 10
If you don't mind occasional traffic this is a great place to camp in. It is right across river with clean toilets. We camped in Site#4 and it has perfect location.
