Summary
No reservations are needed—sites are first-come, first-served. There are no fees, making it a great budget-friendly option. Amenities include pit toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings, but no potable water or hookups—bring your own water and gear. The campground is best for tents or small RVs. Surrounded by lodgepole pine forest, it provides a peaceful, rustic experience with access to nearby hiking and fishing. Visit late spring through early fall for the best weather and trail conditions. No permits required for camping.

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.
