Summary
There are no amenities—no toilets, potable water, picnic tables, or fire rings—so campers must be fully self-sufficient and practice Leave No Trace ethics. RVs are not recommended due to rough road access. Set in a scenic forested river canyon, it’s ideal for solitude, fishing, and launching from the nearby Smullin Visitor Center for Rogue River float trips. The area is surrounded by hiking trails like the Rogue River Trail. Best visited in late spring through early fall when conditions are dry and river access is optimal.

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.
