McMillan Spring Campground sits in a Ponderosa Pine forest on a large flat with expansive views. It is regularly used by many visitors, but seems to be a favorite among big game hunters in the fall. McMillan Spring Campground is also designed for those with horses. It comes complete with corrals, livestock water, and a trough. The corrals can be accessed and viewed easily from a number of sites. In addition to the horse facilities, McMillan Spring is a nine site campground and offers parking areas, picnic tables, fire rings, grills, benches, potable water, and restrooms.
15 miles east of Notom Road and Sandy Ranch Junction
No minimum fee, pay what you feel your experience is worth. Fee is paid on-site.
my wife & I camped here about 20 years ago. it was in early Oct. & we were the only people camping there that nite. nice little campground in the Henry Mountains.
A great location, but f you go, find out first if the water is on and potable.
Very nice camp ground secluded in the Henry mountains with vault toilets, picnic tables and charcoal grills as well as water! Probably one of the nicest secluded camp spots we’ve come across, not the easiest to get to probably why it’s so nice!
This is a wonderful campground heavily shaded by Ponderosa Pine and frequented by various wildlife. While for most of the year this campground is secluded, the closer it gets to fall, the more people you will find there.
There are nine camp sites. To my knowledge, each have a picnic table, fire ring, grill, and bench. Further, there is potable water at the site and restrooms.
While I do not have horses, this campground seems to be a supreme place to bring horses (provided they can handle being driven out here).
By camping here, you can easily make it to Ellen Peak for a quick two hour hike. In fact, if you're going to camp here, you should hike Mt. Ellen. Few places afford such astounding, expansive views.
