Great campground. Hosts keep it very well maintained & clean. Would certainly come back & stay again. Short walk into Confluence which has a few shops. @kaleb_and_lucas_adventures

Chris and Lunda, camp hosts, helped me out when I couldn't get internet and I met some fun people who shared info about where I was going. The morning sun rise over the mts. And through the fog was lovely. I enjoyed the flock of geese call out and flying low following the river. Enjoyable night. I'd go back.

I highly recommend this campground. I never stayed because it's usually packed on weekends, but I stayed on weekdays and it was really nice and quiet. The rivers, the lake, nature all perfect here. There's tons of access for shore fishing and walking.

We came as bike campers and were very happy with the bicycle sites. We have, however, a few suggestions to making it better: move the garbage cans from right beside the bike camping area, it really smelled bad; turn off the sani-station light at 9:00 pm; and give the tent campers and bicycle campers at least one dish-cleaning station maybe near the fire circle.

We stayed six nights in site 36 at Outflow Campground in a 36’ 5th wheel. The road to the campground, 281/Mae West Road has sharp turns with steep uphill and downhill sections. It was low traffic when I arrived on a Tuesday afternoon. It’s a great road for riding a motorcycle but requires careful attention towing a big trailer. The gate was closed when we arrived around 3 pm; I never noticed it being open during our stay. There are no signs whatsoever in the campground. I passed my turn and was able to turn around in a parking lot. I stopped so my wife could check out our site location and the camp host drove over in his truck and asked if I needed directions. He said he was getting ready to leave but he would check me in. I didn’t see him again for about 3 days and several other campers were later looking for a host for various reasons. After about 3 days we saw him all the time in his cart. Some roads in the campground are paved and some of the loop roads are gravel and barely look like a road. The loop roads are narrow for bigger rigs. There were no low tree limbs in the campground that were a concern for me and the road coming in wasn’t bad that way either. My site was very clean and the lawn care in the campground was the best I’ve seen in any state or federal campground. Our gravel pad was level and with the trailer placed at the rear we had room in front for our unhooked truck. There was enough room on the pad for our trailer and truck to be side by side but it would be snug. There was a fire ring with grate that was poorly placed under the edge of a tree. Our site was a full hook up site and all connections were in good shape and located at the rear of the pad. I received 2-3 bars of AT&T 5G cell signal. My wife got no signal with Ting (Verizon). I saw no TV antenna in use so I don’t think OTA channels were available there. One can hear trains and their horns several times during the day but I didn’t find it loud enough to be annoying. We saw several patrols by park rangers in the campground. In spite of the patrols there were signs in the campground of reported bicycle thefts so campers were warned to lock them up. There was a nice playground at the campground. This campground is smaller than most COE campgrounds I’ve seen. There is a bathroom/shower house at one end and another bathroom closer to the entrance. This was a very quiet campground when we were there. Bring all supplies you need as stores in Confluence are lacking. Firewood was available at Mitch’s Fuel & Food in Confluence for $6 a bundle. We paid $24 a night for full hook ups using a pass. I would return to Outflow Campground if I came back to the area.

Stop here, but didn’t camp here. The water outflow from the dam is a kind of a constant background sound. Thought that might be disturbing. Another reason was that the entire area has no T-mobile coverage. Don’t know about other cell services. This site has clean shower facilities.

One of my favorite fly fishing areas and so family friendly. Excellent access to the GAP.

Great place to camp, but sometimes hard to get into. Gave it 4 stars, because some campers think walking through other people’s sites to get from point A to point B is perfectly acceptable. Maybe impose a fine to discourage this type of behavior.

Great stop for a picnic after visiting falling water. Peaceful and well kept. Lots of picnic tables and a restroom.

Very clean.
