Camp in a gorgeous setting in a very remote area located right on the Tallulah River. Campsite are primitive but enough space for a full sized camper. Each site has a fire pit with grate & picnic table. Bathrooms are nice enough & there's bear proof garbage.
We had a great time here. The rope swing was a big hit. Denton Creek Waterfall was a tough hike but worth it.
I’ve been coming here over 50 years and now my kids and grand kids enjoy this little slice of heaven. The campsites have been citified since I first came here but the river is as pristine as ever.
Love the this campground. Spacious spots and half have water access. Beautiful area and clean camp sites.
Best camping place there is! EVER! Quiet & peaceful as long as parents have their kids and dogs under control. Complete quiet hours from 10pm till 6am so you can get a good nights sleep. No electricity but plenty of cold running water in the stream. STAY AWAY if you don't like having a peaceful and relaxing place to camp. Remember to take only pictures and leave only footprints. This is everyone's place to enjoy so be sure and respect it as so. Been camping here for over 40 years and it's just as beautiful now as it was back when I was a kid!
