(1 out of 1 members found this review useful.)Spent night at Mortimer campground with family on Monday, practically having the entire campground to ourselves. It has several trails, clean restroom and shower facilities, a small local store with friendly staff nearby and many more trails nearby. I would highly recommend one on Pineola Road, which is a 1 lane road with very little traffic, down to a fall. It was about a mile to the falls, but worth every step. I'd like to thank the man at the store for recommending that area, he said we might see a bear in that area, didn't see the bear but enjoyed the road. There is a wonderful sandwich shop near the end of that road. I look forward to going back to Mortimer campground and that area of the mountains.
