The Cottonwood Creek Trailhead/Campground features an interpretive kiosk, five campsites with fire rings, picnic tables toilet facility, four horse corrals, a horse watering trough and food storage boxes.
From Lovell, take Highway 14A for approximately 10 miles. Immediately after the causeway on the east side of Bighorn Lake, turn left onto John Blue Canyon Road/BLM Road #1122. Take the first road on the right, and travel this road for roughly five miles until you reach the campground and trailhead.
Be prepared for mosquitoes. There are horse corals and bathrooms here. Free camping. Beautiful views.
This is a so so campground. Very dry and uneven. It is kind of out of the way too. No shade and no water. The trail is a nice hike in the winter, however. Just watch out for snow covered ice on the trail in several areas.
