GuideEmpty & Quiet
The 7 campsites at East Marvine Campground were surprisingly empty in mid-July and the neighboring Marvine Campground was only half full. Site 1 is a pull-thru near the restrooms.
Open late-May to late-October
First Come First Served
$20 per night +$5 for horse corrals
50ft max RV length
The big attraction in the area seems to be the East Marvine Trail and Marvine Trail that leads into the Flat Tops Wilderness. Very popular for pack trips. We saw quite a few horse trailers in the area.
GuideSure secluded and private
This campground is very secluded and offers good fishing opportunities in the mountain creek.
