Summary

Fees are typically around $15/night. Amenities include pit toilets, potable water (seasonal), fire rings, and picnic tables; there are no hookups, but RVs up to 16 feet can access the sites. Set in a serene, forested alpine valley, it’s ideal for solitude and scenery. Popular hiking trails like Baron Lakes and Sawtooth Lake begin nearby. Summer (June–September) is the best time to visit due to snow-free access and mild weather. No dispersed camping in the immediate area.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
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.
