The South Fork Campground provides good access to fishing on the South Fork of the White River, and hiking & horseback riding in the Flat Tops Wilderness. This site provides access to South Fork Trail #1827and Spring Cave Trail #1834. Overflow camping is available (regular fees apply).
The South Fork Campground is located 29 miles east of Meeker. From Meeker, take Colorado Highway 13 east for 1 mile, then turn right (east) on Rio Blanco County Road 8 and follow this for 18 miles. Turn south and Rio Blanco County Road 10 for 2 miles, jog north .25 miles, then continue east for 10 miles to the campground.
Shhh... don't go there too.
This place I'd sweet. Bathrooms, water, trash service, campground host, beautiful creek. Kids loved it. It is a pay site.
The absolute best camp site I've ever been to. Clean bathrooms, first of all. The camp sites are far enough from each other that you dont overhear anyone else and you feel like your camp is your own little slice of the woods. If you want to bring a large party or a group of large RVs there is accommodations for that aswell. Theres not cell cervice or power when I went, but there is water pumps and places to throw away your garbage. The hosts are always inviting and nice. Close to the river and great overhead coverage from the trees. Beautiful hikes up the creek and around the mountain, great for a half day hike. Abundant firewood, and great picnic tables and fire pits. Overall the best campground ive ever been to.
The trail has beautiful views and scenery, however the trail is poorly maintained, with many trees blocking the path. The trail is also not marked well, meaning you have to spend lots of time searching for where the trail continues. The fire has made the trail hard to travel.
