"There was an outhouse near our site and it was kept pretty clean. We had 5 adults and 10 kids so we kept to ourselves the entire time we were there. I highly recommend this campground."
ScoutNice campground, lots of space for RVs, Tents, Vehicle, And even Glamping. Easily Accessible from the Road. Bathroom is cute and placed in the middle.
ScoutI love that I didnt have to meet with anyone. Just booked online, and checked in and out on my own.
GuideNational Forest campground. Free. Sites spread out. Light usage. Recent tree maintenance has resulted in several large piles of cut down trees. Pit toilet.
TravelerNo one else was there when I went. Nice stalls for horses, though I had none. Right next to a nice little trail that crosses the creek. Quiet and peaceful
LegendWell-spaced sites with a clean vault toilet. No trash, so pack out what you take in. Quite full on a Wednesday though--looked like several campers who like to max out the 14-day stay limits.
LegendNot a bad place to stay, despite being right off the road. A police officer patrolled through at one point during my 2-nights there. The vault toilet was well maintained. No other amenities, including no trash, so pack out what you bring in. I was able to snag one bar of cell service if I held my phone just right.
ScoutWe have been camping here for years!
TravelerI am on my 16 state trip for 6 months for my Outdoors Unsupervised channnel (the camp video comes out July 17th, 2025 on YT)
The Apache Creek Campground is the best free campsite I been to and I visited 9 states so far. Very beautiful Campground and spaced out terrific. There is a small bathroom to boot. Fire rings at every campsite as well as picnic tables and tree trunks cut in half for tables/seatin' areas. Very scenic and as the title states ... TREEEES!!!!
I hiked a trail nearby and relavl Ed arpund the fire at nighst and in the mornings. Nights were average if 55 and mornin' were around 30-40. Very quite and tranquil.
Winds kick up a bit from 9AM til 8PM 12-15mph average and a lil dusty in April the locals in Reserve 11 miles away told me.
I drove there for a food challenge for my other channel Da Garbage Disposal at Smokey's Cafe and it was really good authentic Mexican food where I had the combination plate. (video comes out May 14th on YT).
They have a grocery store with fresh meat a butcher is generous with the portions as well as an automatic ice/water machine next to Smokey's cafe.
I definitely recommend Apache Creek Campgroind as a must stop if you are passing by the area.
