McGee Creek

There were only about two spots before you hit a boulder in the middle of the path and the two paths were taken up by some trailers that look like they’ve been there a long while

Such a great spot and close to a lot of the local hiking. Nice and flat areas for van parking. Some occasional noise from the road but not bothersome at all. Spots closer to the creek create a nice white noise. Beautiful view of the mountains in the morning. Will definitely be back here again.

The campground is nice as described. Verizon gets some cell signal. The real glory is in the McGee of Creek trail at the end of the road. It's only a couple of miles away and is fantastic, easy hiking. The October foliage was amazing.

Sept 2023. Road was closed so we walked the half mile or so in. Beautiful spot!

May 2023- We happened upon this place through "the dyrt" and what a hidden jewel! We camped right next to the stream and stayed one night and it was peaceful and far away from any highway. The road becomes dirt and while bumpy in places, our class B van with low clearance did fine going slow. The creek was 40 feet from our spot, running well (Spring of 2023 after record snowfall) and the dog loved playing it it. We arrived 1pm and there was just one other vehicle. By evening there were about 7 more vehicles but they dispersed. We camped at the first turn off where you'll see the Forest Service Sign. You can continue further on the bumpy road and there are other sites along the way, which I can't speak about as we did not go there. BE CAREFUL as there are two camps with same name. The one we stayed at is just west of Bishop. There is another "Mc Gee Creek Forest Service Campground" west of Lake Crowley which looks great, but I've not been there.
