From Susanville, CA, take State Rt. 36 west 4.9 miles to State Rt.44. Turn right onto Rt. 44 and go 20.6 miles to campground sign. Turn left after sign onto Forest Rt. 31N26 and go 1.5 miles to campground sign. Turn right onto FR31N21 (dirt) and go 0.4 miles to campground.
First come, first serve.
Spent a night there. I was the only one there. The road in to the south is better. Don't let Google maps take you on the north entrance by the rest stop unless you have a sturdy car.
One of our favorites! Water table is way low though so they hand pump was only able to produce a couple gallons per day. Fortunately we had plenty and were able to share with a couple of others.
It's a lovely unkept campground nestled in the pines and aspens. 9 campsites and 4 horse sites. We came in with a self contained trailer.
The bathroom is a vault. They have little air fresheners in them. USFS does not stop by too often. Bring your own tp.
There is a water hand pump. You just about have to be Arnold Schwarzenegger STRONG to get it to pump water. Bring your own water. You can fill water jugs at the Bogard Rest Area.
We did love our time while we were there. There is lots to explore in the area. It's beautiful.
