Summary
Located within the scenic Sproul State Forest, it provides a rugged, forested experience ideal for solitude seekers. There are no flush toilets, water sources, or RV hookups; campers must be fully self-sufficient. Fire rings and picnic tables are not guaranteed, though some cleared spots may have rudimentary setups. The area is popular for hiking and exploring nearby trails like the Chuck Keiper Trail. Best visited from late spring to early fall, Golden Slipper offers a remote, back-to-nature escape surrounded by lush woodlands and mountain views.

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.
