This is a great place to camp if you want to go to Silver Lake or other area lakes for water recreation or hiking. Also the Pot Holes are along the river right along this campground - downside is that there can be a lot of foot traffic due to the pot holes. Some sites are under the trees, some are more up against the rocks. First come, first served / no reservations. Car and RV sites, picnic tables, fire rings.

Kit Carson, Plasses and Kirkwood all have a small mom and pop stores with limited supplies This campground is not the same ownership as Silver Lake East which is on the other side of HWY 88.
