We always love staying in the group sites at Edson! Our host did a good job and was very friendly. We do miss the days of having someone come down and hose the bathrooms out though. We let the host know that a tree fell on group site E, covering the fire pit and the picnic table. Thank you for the great place to camp!

The stay was good but on arrival our reserved camp site was occupied. Just a bit frustrating for other camper and ourself due to the fact that the camp host caused the situation. Not to their own fault but due to the fact that the camp host does not have access to the Internet to confirm camp site reservations. BLM should provide Internet access for the host so they can monitor the reservation list. All ended well, only because the other camper was so kind.

I love camping at Edson. It’s a well kept park. And it seemed everyone was respectful of each other. Respected the quiet time. I think this year was the best year.
