We loved it here!

We stayed here in 2018, but I’m new to this app and thought I’d make a review of it since they don’t have many. The scenery was beautiful, spaced away from other sites so you felt very secluded. Behind our camping spot was a waterfall, running creek, and a big rock with deeper water the kids could jump off if they wanted to brave the cold water. No cell service. I would highly recommend!

Can be busy!

This campsite is just a little bit past the paid campground on Lincoln Creek Road. Around about 22 free sites. It's a heavy usage area especially on weekends, so arrive early to claim your spot and only camp only in designated sites. 

Make sure you hang or lock your food up. They apparently have a bad bear problem.
