Clean well run campground in a great location.

Do NOT reserve a double site!!!!! Each campground in their forest service section gets to make their own rules. Even though the sign outside their office clearly states you will get a discount with your senior Lifetime National Park pass they said they couldn’t and wouldn’t. We reserved the site and tried multiple time to put our code in for the discount. A pop up said to show our pass upon arrival. That was a firm no from the 2 ladies running the store. They said they had no control and couldn’t do anything. When we could my husband called and after talking with several people and he was told it was up to the people at Standing Indian. Beautiful place but not good customer service. Be careful with what it says online and what they do in person because they’re making their own rules. For retired people on a budget that wasn’t helpful.

I have stated this campground for 3 years in a row. Every time we enjoy our stay. The staff is friendly and helpful. At the forest is beautiful and very relaxing. I would highly recommend staying here one weekend.

If you want to get off the grid and enjoy a peaceful outdoor adventure this is the place! Absolutely no cell service or internet here (even the camp store is wifi free.) A quiet getaway. We had a perfect campsite with lots of privacy and space. Lots of trees for hammocks. Great trails with flowers and a rushing river. Bathrooms are clean and well kept. Couldn’t have been better!

Great spot for camping and hiking. Easy access to trails nearby. Hikes can start in or near the camp or you can access a few more with just a short drive. Bathrooms were cleaned everyday and showers were warm. The whole staff were very nice and the area is just gorgeous. Edit: bring cash to pay for sites as there is no credit card processing on site.
