This 15-site campground is located near the Little Naches River and is popular with motorcycle riders.
From Cliffdell, WA, take State Rt. 410 west 3.3 miles to Little Naches Rd. sign. Turn right at sign, onto Forest Rt. 19, and go 2.6 miles to Raven Roost sign. Turn left at sign and go 0.4 miles to an intersection (Raven Roost sign). Turn right at sign, crossing bridge, to a "Y" intersection. Bear right, onto Forest Rt. 1921, and immediately right into campground.
Located near the intersection of Crow Creek and Little Naches River. Pay to use sites; not reservable. Dirt and gravel road. Not easy for some trailers to get in. Picnic tables and fire ring at each site. Vault toilets. Garbage disposal available via dumpsters. No potable water. Usually wildlife in the area.
Get here via Highway 410 to NF-40, a left onto NF-1902, at the Y-intersection (forward becomes 1920) go right across the bridge, a right once you cross the bridge, then a right down a dirt road where you will start to pass camp sites on your right-hand side. The info board and payment area is just ahead.
Beautiful campground. Really lovely. The fresh smell of rich pine. Great place to fish and crawdad. Lots of wilderness to explore.
Right beside Crows Creek. Wonderful place for dirt bikes, side by sides, 4×4's and more.
We come here almost every year and we love the magic of the creeks and the large camping spots. It is first come, first serve and that has forced us to stay at different spots. We definietly have our favorites and there are some hidden secrets to a few of these spots. This campground, friends and family make this a magical spot for a long weekend.
We found a gem of a spot alongside the river. Our site was private, yet had restrooms near by. We did a little Jeepin' near by and explored the beautiful mountain terrain, took a small hike, and walked the dogs around a bit. The site had a picnic table and fire pit and plenty of flat ground to set up a tent close to the river. We definitely noted the location of this campground so that we could visit again. There are many other wooded riverside camps in the area. Head over to Little Naches if you are looking for warmer temps, nice shade when you need it, and an authentic NW camp experience. We had a blast. Also, we were coming from Seattle (Snoqualmie actually), and tried taking FS Road #70 but it had snow at the high point. Sounds like that forest service road doesn't open fully until June 15. But driving around on 410 and going over Chinook Pass was breathtaking. What a beautiful trip! Get out there!
