 Pros:
Lovely views and handy for the Clachaig Inn.
Ideal for backpackers hiking with tents.
Ideal for young people.
Cons:
Overpriced for what was available (£25/night for two people).
The chemical disposal point was bunged up solid and out of action The fresh water tap was close to the ground and looked unhygienic.
No separate pitches, just stony ground and sort ourselves out.
No staff around at night and warden's mobile number painted out.
Paid for 2 nights on arrival, but left after 1 night anyway.

Beautifully sited campsite in woodland with open glades and a river.
There is a natural swimming pond in a bend in the river with water too deep to stand in - wonderfully refreshing on a hot sunny day!
Lots of space so we never felt cramped - our 2 teenaged boys were able to pitch their own tents on the grass near our motorhome.
Good clean facilities but no hot water for washing up.

We really loved the location and the woodland set-up of the campsite, being also next to the river.
Access to the ladies’ bathroom blocks was a bit temperamental,
But other than that, a beautiful spot, thank you for having us!

Great site lots of varied pitches,
Great river swimming pool and unrivalled view from the pool,
Fire pits helped with keeping the midge at bay,
Only negative my two teens having to pay adults price made the site quite expensive per night having a family of six
Overall a great park with basic facilities

We went of a busy weekend and the campsite was very full. We got a spot ok, but car parking was at a premium. On arrival, they just took our money and told us to help ourselves - no help whatsever.
Toilets were not very clean and lots of noise after 11pm with no wardens visible.
Had heard lots of good reviews of this campsite, but we won't be back unless out of season and its a bit quieter.

Red Squirrel never disappoints. Such a quiet site and the views are spectacular ☺️ lots of wildlife around too.
Can't wait to go back next year.
Can easily walk to Glencoe taking in the scenery, or just a short 5 minutes in the car.

Perfect place to hang out with friends around a fire and great for a dip in the 'pool',
Stunning views and nice atmosphere.
Lovely walk to the pub in the moonlight!

Great location, friendly staff
However needs to improve facilities ie Hygiene in toilets and bathrooms. Adding up more toilets and bath rooms with regular cleaning will make the place amazing.

Excellent campsite, have been before and was looking forward to returning. Staff very friendly and helpful, facilities clean and well maintained.
Was busy but plenty of space and other campers friendly. Dog loved it as did we.
Would have stayed another night if wasn't for the gale force winds which aren't ideal in a tent 😍 we had lovely weather for the 2 previous days although plenty of midgie bites too which was to be expected.
Will definitely be going back to this beautiful area, lots of nice walks around too.

We enjoyed our stay at red squirrell campsite. It is situated in a lovely place right at the side of the loch. Just a pity the facilities weren't open, but that's understandable.
Plenty of activities to do locally. Really enjoyable stay.
We have not rated the child friendly, and the site facilities. Because they didn't relate to us

Superb location. Stunning views of Glencoe and the river runs right through the site. A good all round feel.
Very nice welcome.
You'll need your midge repellent.

Quite busy as to be expected although managed to find a quiet enough spot on the far right edge of the campsite where we could light our own fire, set up our tent and hammocks making it feel like our own.
In beautiful location surrounded by nature and mountains.
Toilets/showers a bit of a walk from where we were but didn't mind this as would rather be more secluded. On the pricier side although worth it as amazing location with stunning views.
Friendly staff and happy to help. Would go back again. Really enjoyed our stay

Great camp site. Facilities are basic but well maintained. The location is fantastic, especially if you get good weather.
My kids played in the river all day. Wetsuits recommended.
Staff were friendly and helpful. It’s quite spread out so take your time to find a pitch you like. The owner is hysterical! 😃

Spend 2 nights at Red Squirrel and it was amazing. The river is right next to you and the scenery is just beautiful.
Will hopefully be returning soon!
Close to An Torr which is a lovely walk to do. Many others close too. Dog friendly also which is great, my fluffy pup had a great time.
The toilets/showers and washing up area were clean enough for what you need. Just gotta watch for the midgies!
