We always love this campground. The caretaker always make sure everything is so clean. It's in a good location and up next to the Weiser bike trail.

We got lucky with the site we picked for our 26ft trailer. Space #9 was secluded and yet spacious. It had a great table and fireplace. The cons were in the description it said there was drinking water on site. It was literally a drinking fountain, plus a ground level spicket for a dog which made it impossible to fill our trailer. Had to go to a New Meadows gas station to use their water and then drive back. So if show up expecting to fill your camper with water, you'll be disappointed. Also, there are trails nearby, including a former train route that used to haul lumber I believe. There are abandoned train trestle on this route, but we never reached them. As nice as the camp host was, there was no trail maps to be had. So go, but be prepared for those challenges.

We had a tent site facing the highway. No shade for our tent and road noise pretty much non stop. The camp host was great. The bathrooms sparkled. We just should have been more careful on choosing our site.
