Martins Dairy Campground

1 ReviewAdd Review

Cattle guards mark the entrances to this Forest Service campground, which sits behind barbed wire fencing designed to keep livestock out of the camping area. A small stream flows through the property from an adjacent meadow, creating habitat that draws deer and other wildlife regularly through the six available sites. Each site includes a picnic table and fire pit, with water hookups available for RVs up to 30 feet. The restroom facilities receive high marks from visitors for cleanliness. At $10 per night during the June through October season, the campground also accommodates day use and equestrian activities alongside overnight camping.

Beautifully secluded

I knew nothing about this place before going here. I was just here as a base camp to scout for elk, which I saw none of, for an upcoming hunting trip. This place was absolutely beautiful! They offer day use, horse use, and overnight use. The overnight use has 6 available spots at $10/day which is a deal given that the sites are ample with awesome picnic benches and fire pits. I’m never excited to use a campsite bathroom but this was immaculate and never smelled. Cleanest public bathroom I have ever encountered. There is a small stream that flows through the area coming from a beautiful meadow. All sorts of wildlife loves to visit, even deer. The camp is surrounded by a barbed wire fence to keep cows out, I’m assuming. There are cattle guards at both entrances of the site as well. This is my new favorite spot.
