McCully Heritage Project Levee
Nice spot. Clear directions. Bathrooms are pretty good but a decent hike from the sites. The pond site and levee site are fairly close together and the other site had 7 cars and a dozen people which was unexpected. They were nice folks but kinda loud until almost midnight which is way past quiet hours. I pointed this out to our hosts the next day and got no response. We still enjoyed our stay overall.

We really enjoyed our time at the McCully Heritage Project. We were the only ones camping in that area, so we had a lot of space and privacy. The campsites are huge and lots of options to where you can pitch a tent. The hiking was great, and the restrooms/showers were clean. We definitely will be back - we enjoyed following some of the trails through the woods but only scratched the surface of the hiking available.

McCully Heritage Project Levee
We stayed at the levee spot. It was quite and peaceful. We loved hiking the northern trails kinda was bummed about the southern trails were closed but hoping to come back when southern trails are back open. Would recommend staying here.

McCully Heritage Project pond site
Good location to camp
Loved the location we camped. It was isolated from other camping sites. The facilities were clean. Had a great time.

We will be back!
Real outdoor camping experience great for quicj retreat. Even though other sites were located nearby you felt like you had your own space, quiet and secluded. Places to walk/ wonder, go fishing, play with rocks and in the play ground. Everything was clean and it was nice to have firewood for purchase everyday, drinkable water, and charging station just in case! The kids had an amazing first time tent camping experience and the dogs didn’t want to leave. Also it was cool to take your car on the ferry taxi to get to the spot - just added to the trip! * there isn’t cell service at the campsites but you can get some service by the main road if you need it
