What a beautiful, remote campground after a rough drive in. We hauled in our 16 foot Airstream on 10 miles of paved road, then 1 mile of wide gravel, then 4 miles of barely single lane gravel, with low tree canopy, many pot holes, steeps sides, and very few turn around points or turn outs. We were lucky and didn't meet a trailer coming from the other direction. The creek in July was more like a raging river and quite noisy but pleasant sounding for sites not immediately adjacent to the creek. Most of one loop has been blocked off and is no longer accessible by trailers per signage because there is no turn around, but small trailers like mine could still be backed in and pulled out forward. Sites 21-26 are all on an active loop and approved for trailer access. I've only pulled a 16 foot trailer but I wouldn't think any thing over 18-20 feet should be taken in due to the narrow roads and tight loop turn. Sites are very clean, shaded, and large with flat 10x10 sand tent pads. There are no utilities, cell service or ranger on site. I didn't check out the pit toilet but they are the solid concrete type. Day time temps July 22, 2022 was high 74, low 57. Cost was $21/night with extra charge for extra vehicles. We used our Sr. Pass and got the site for $11. I only gave it 4 stars due to the drive in and would only go again with a tent due to the road.
