This first-come, first-served campground provides drinking water and accessible toilets along a loop road beside Spring Creek within Gunnison National Forest. Most sites sit streamside where flowing water creates natural sound, while sites across the loop face canyon views with hummingbirds frequently spotted during summer months. The Forest Service maintains clean facilities and adequate spacing between sites from May through September.
Campers can access additional dispersed camping by continuing past the established campground up the forest road, with sites around Gunnison National Forest extending toward higher elevations. The narrow canyon setting blocks cell service completely. No pets are permitted at this location.
