Great views & helpful staff. A short video can be viewed, they have a Gift store, if you have your National Passport book, remember to get your stamp. Clean restrooms.
Jasper Park Information Center

The Staff was so helpful & friendly. Gave so many suggestions & when asked about weather. If it's sunny now, go do what you want otherwise, "wait 5 minutes and weather changes". So glad we took that advice. Next day, main road was closed as precaution due to weather, in an avalanche area. We always visit these centers as that's where you find the best info & more
Natural Bridge Campground
2023 Jul 12
Natural Bridge Campground, privately owned was acquired & now managed by Red River Gorge Vacations. This is a first for me to write a negative review regarding a camp experience &we've been camping for 8 years at least 5 months each year. The campground itself is very nice with mountains all around. Disappointed in mgmt with our check in. door to office mostly locked & she stood on the steps outside to talk to me when we checked in. Told her we were reserved at site "x" with a response was OK, go on over. Nothing else. No paper, explanation/info on wifi or restrooms or any info about grounds. There was trash in our firepit. Not once in the week we were there did we see anyone check on sites when campers left. One day I saw 2 guys "rake" 2 sites nearby as the gravel had deep ruts. Never did they try to rake along roadside where there were muddy ruts.
For us RVr's, plan on using your own restroom/ shower facilities! Tent campers-good luvk. Theirs are in 2 separate bldgs, Men's/ women's restroom all under one roof with no separation, yes doors on each of the few stalls. They were the dirtiest & smelliest I've ever witnessed. We were there for a week & I can tell you I'd rather used portholes or better just squat in the woods. The shower house floors felt like you were going to fall through the floor they were so soft. Shower curtains full of mold & the floor was a pink in color às sometimes a toilet bowl gets from water sitting too long. Both bldgs stunk so bad. It's such a shame because they are building beautiful cabins along the same side as these shower/restroom (very old bldgs) & should be putting some $$ into restroom/showers. There were alot of tent campers but even for a weekend & us leaving on weekday the trash cans full, toilets look like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks. We were self contained but for a full week with only water/ elec sites, having a clean restroom would've been helpful. I sure hope they put money into their restrooms/ showers for guests. We drove thru the state park Middle Fork- it was much better & cheaper, tighter sites. We had 4 tents, young adults, next to us that also complained of bathrooms & their check in. they were supposed to have electric at both sites, only one box. They too were going to write review. Pictures are the restroom, hallway is the Men/Women combined restroom(s)

Rock Island State Park
2023 Jul 03
Amazing park! Well kept. There's couple overlooks one the drive further up to the beach where you can bring kayak/ canoe to paddle down the river. There are some places to stop along the way but be careful with slippery rocks. Take a swim. You can paddle up to the rapids. The beach was dog friendly (on leashes) & picnic tables throughout. Restrooms are clean. Hiking was closed when we went so not sure about trails.
