Widely separated site

I visited this campground on July 3, 2023. The gate was locked and a notice that it was closed. However, I walked through the site to gather information for any possible future visit.

It was one of the most beautiful campgrounds of the five I visited between Prospect and Union Gap. Idyllic widely separated sites with lots of trees and beautiful grasses. The last of the 25 sites were actually in a meadow.

There was no water available that I could see. The stream was a short distance and I suppose if you had water treatment you could get water there. They did have grey water disposal sites. I saw a pit and vault latrine. They were locked, but looked recently painted. There were also a couple big, green, plastic dump bins. I did not see any mosquitoes.

There is no electricity and I did not get any cell signal using Verizon. The sites were flat and some pretty large for longer trailers. It was all gravel.

It was a little confusing to get there. The sign on Highway 62 pointed down a road. After crossing a bridge, I hit a T intersection, but there was not sign. Turn right and you will cross another bridge and then see the campground entrance.

One should call ahead to the Forest Service office in Prospect to see if it becomes open for use.

Very Positive!

We searched for a campsite all the way from Diamond Lake down to lost creek lake all all of the campsites were full. We decided to check one more time at Abbott Creek and found a little campsite literally next to the creek outside of the designated camping area were we could back the truck with the attached trailer down to our campsite. There was a fire ring already built and a place to fit our Sky View Lodge (aka our 1 massive tent that can fit 10) and camped for 2 nights! There was no bathroom but when camping right, you bring the essential shovel and tee-pee and find some privacy and your fine! We also had no access to clean purified water, again we boiled it and we're fine! Overall a great way to bring the family out for a good weekend trip!
