SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

The sound of moving water is a constant at Clyde Dispersed Camping, where sites sit directly in a meadow alongside a creek at the intersection of Gold Camp Road and Forest Service Road 376. This free, National Forest dispersed area outside campgrounds near Victor draws campers who want creek access, open meadow sites, and room to spread out without a fee. Existing fire pits are already in place at most spots, which cuts down on setup time.

Navigation takes some attention. The coordinates listed on most platforms drop you onto Gold Camp Road well short of the actual sites. Reviewers consistently note you need to drive 20 to 30 minutes past the listed coordinates to reach the FR 376 intersection. A tunnel along the route signals you are getting close. Two distinct spurs branch off from there: 376D has a couple of spots, while 376B offers more choices on notably uneven roads. AT&T users should expect no cell service.

Firewood is scarce near the sites themselves, but downed trees are available along the road in. Bugs are a real factor given the creek proximity, so mosquito repellent and fly traps are worth packing. Crowds pick up on weekends, and Gold Camp Road/Forest Service Road 376 Dispersed fills before this area does, making Clyde a reasonable fallback. As Chris P. puts it, "the creek provides great ambience and water supply." Campers who can handle rough spur roads and self-sufficient navigation will find this spot worth the effort.

Great spot

It’s a great spot and pretty good amounts of spot to choose from, most contain fire pits already ready to go. Just be sure to look into the county’s current fire ban and not the national park!

But the sound of the river flowing thru sure made it peaceful at night

Awesome spot, inaccurate coordinates

I loved this campsite, lots of options right by the river for tent campers. You have to go about 20-30 minutes past the coordinates, to the intersection with forest road 376. There are a couple spots on 376d, and then a lot more with very uneven roads on 376b. No service at all with ATT from my experience. Really really loved the site! The only reason I deducted a star was because of the inaccurate location, but it’s a very cool and secluded spot during the week—saw a couple of moose on my way in and around 9pm one ran through my campsite! Most of my photos are from the 376b loop as there are a lot more spots to choose from

Great place

This spot was super busy but it is a good spot. The coordinates provided get you onto Gold Camp Road but you have to drive way further. There is a super cool tunnel which means you are close. There is a lack of fire wood around some spots. But plenty of dead trees off the side of the road that you could grab on your way in

Great spot right off Gold Camp Rd

This site is right at the intersection of Gold, Camp Road and FR376.  It sits in the meadow right next to the creek. There are two sites one of which is definitely big enough for a decent size rig. If all the sites at seven Lakes are taken and the sites further up 376 in the meadow on the left-hand side are taken and this is a good back up option. Fire pits are already in place and the creek provides great ambience and water supply. The only thing that was in short supply was firewood, so if you drive back up to go camp Road and turn right, there is a turning on the left-hand side immediately after 376 with plenty of downed trees.
 Given that it’s next to the creek, there are bugs, so go prepared with fly traps and mosquito repellent.
