I was evacuated due to a nearby fire. I appreciate being evacuated, but it wasn’t the experience I was looking for.

My family/husband and I have been going to Ophir Creek for 40+years! Have always enjoyed it! My happy place!:) Since it became a reservation campground, it seems like it is harder and harder to find a site. It has become more popular and more people are going there. We have a few favorite sites. But have noticed that some are tent only! Which is disturbing because we have put our little trailer there before! Also, my biggest disappointment is that the camp host always gets site #2! My favorite! Why can't they change the host sites so that others can enjoy them as well????

Pretty area and enough space for multiple tents. It was nice having the creek next to the campsite.
