Nice and peaceful

Beautiful and shady. There is access to the stream which has a nice swimming hole, if you don’t mind the cold. The campground is quite with absolutely no cell service, which is great if that’s what you are looking for. A small warning, the mosquitoes are abundant in the early evening.

our favorite

this is our absolute favorite place to camp for nostalgic reasons. the creek is so clear and cold, its amazing feeling when its hot out.

unfortunately, fire season can take its toll and the whole river valley will be covered in smoke. we try to go earlier in the summer to avoid the risk when possible.

the best part is theres no cell service to distract you.
