White Horse Hill Campground has received mixed reviews from campers. Some have praised the stunning views, excellent location for hiking, and cleanliness of the facilities. Many have noted that the campground gets very busy, and some have experienced issues with the toilets and water being closed or not functioning properly, especially during winter.
Some reviewers have mentioned that the campground's facilities suffer due to the high volume of day trippers and hikers who come to the area, making it feel overcrowded and dirty. Others have recommended staying at nearby Glentanner Campground for a more peaceful and clean experience.
Despite these issues, many campers have still had a good experience at White Horse Hill Campground, citing its convenient location near hiking trails and the beauty of the surrounding mountains. The cost of $15 per night has been considered good value by some. However, others have felt that the price was not justified given the limitations of the facilities. Overall, the campground seems to offer a good experience for those willing to overlook its drawbacks, but it may not be suitable for those looking for a peaceful and well-maintained campground.
