Turkey Creek

We stayed in a dispersed spot about a mile before Sycamore Campground - it was great! Very private and next to a babbling creek. No cell service and so very quiet and peaceful. We saw 6 turkeys! There is a long stretch of primitive road (quite rocky) to get out the campground. We also took Apache Pass to get there - and would not recommend this ‘shortcut’ - almost 30 minutes of primitive bumpy road.

Small, quiet, creek side camp

Nice, small campground with pit toilets, fire rings and bear boxes. Saw many deer and turkeys in the area. Plenty of shade available; unfortunately, only stagnant pools of water in the creek this time of year. $15 per night, there are dispersed sites available along the road as well. Easily accessible down a dirt road.

Great quiet spot

Mid week in September and we were the only people at the campgrounds. Nice clean bathrooms, picnic tables, fire pit, and bear box. Campgrounds are next to a creek with a trailhead leading to a waterfall, couldn’t ask for more for a free campsite.

Excellent campsites by the stream

The campground is situated right next to a mountain stream that is cool to explore. It's a little tough to get to but it's worth it. Not very many sites though so it may fill up on weekends
