Something not right?
Description
This campground has a variety of sites including both tent sites and RV sites. We stayed at a tent site for $16 a night. Free showers that start off hot but then get ice cold within 2 min. There is one bar Verizon service that comes and goes. Pet-friendly. This is right outside the diamond hunting fields. Finders keepers for any gems you get. $10 entrance to the mine.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
Nice campground with amenities, showers stayed hot for us when we stayed unlike some other reviews. Not great cell service. Next to the diamond hunting grounds.
Report Check-InTypical campground - they wouldn’t let me purchase a tent spot ($14) unless I occupied a tent. Unfortunate because my van would have fit fine in the parking for tenting. Instead, I paid ~$38 for an RV spot.
Bathrooms are clean. Hot water lasted about 15 seconds then went cold/tepid. Both for showers and sinks.
Only very large rigs around.
Wi-Fi is down while there is construction (see their website for the latest).
While it’s unlikely that I’ll be back, next time I would try the Miners Campground. Chatted with a few people at the mine fields about it and they said it was a good place and cheap. Though that they were sketched out by it when arriving because “some people are there permanently.” Seems a more friendly and affordable option, though I didn’t see it for myself.
