Within Gunnison National Forest, this US Forest Service campground operates under a no-pets policy that sets it apart from many other forest sites. The drive-in access makes it reachable by standard vehicles, though campers should verify current road conditions before arrival.
Located roughly three miles from the small mountain town of Pitkin, the campground sits among several other forest camping options in this section of the national forest. With sparse review data available, potential visitors should contact the Forest Service directly for current amenities, site availability, and seasonal operating schedules before making the trip.
