We had stopped and used the toilets after hiking Murhut Falls and fell in love with site 14. We had not been camping in a decade and decided to make it happen. We did not get the site we wanted. But, as it often goes what we got was much better. Our river front was breathtaking. The camp and toilets were very clean. It was quite and the the Duckabush was pristine. With no electricity or access to the internet we were unplugged and thoroughly enjoyed time at Collins campground.

The campground was very nice. Sites were large, with river access. The big problem for the entire weekend was zero toilet paper and pit toilet upkeep. I can only assume the "President" has cut all funds for federal sites, and there isn't enough staff.

Beautiful and out of the way. We got there early before the spots filled up. Make sure to do the rangers hole hike while you’re there. You won’t regret it!
