Everyone’s Favorite Place to Camp and Explore

Limited camp sites; first come first serve at times… Group Camp can be reserved thru Rangers Station. No showers, but bathrooms. At times they can smell, but never bothered me enough not to return.

River is divine! Hiking down to swimming holes you’ll see natural jacuzzi areas to sit between the falls. Hiking also requires some rock climbing. We take our border collies and they are able to follow with minimal assistance.

Nice to camp without RVs

There are six large, improved sites which are first come first serve cash pay only. Vault toilets, no water and no electricity. Each site has enough room for three tents and has a grill, fire pit, table, and bear pole. There is easy access to the falls and hiking trails.

Amazing place to explore

Happened upon this by accident last year on a trip back home. We couldn’t wait to go back and spend a day exploring. It’s not for the faint or heart or people avoiding physical activity because trekking the huge river boulders is not easy. But the beauty is worth it. The water is crystal clear and you can watch fish swim by. The surrounding foliage is beautiful.

It’s primitive camping only and just about 6 spots. The bathroom was clean and well stocked. No running water or electricity but it was a great place to have a picnic and explore!
