Summary
Reservations aren’t required; sites are first-come, first-served with a small nightly fee. Amenities include pit toilets, picnic tables, fire rings, and nearby creek water (treat before use). No hookups, but RVs are allowed (limited space). The vibe is peaceful and remote—ideal for fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing. Nearby trails like Weitas Creek offer great backcountry access. Best visited June–September for warm, dry weather and accessible roads. A true off-grid, rustic experience for campers seeking solitude and natural beauty.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
