Iron Creek Campground
Reviewed Jul. 29, 2021

Close to amazing hiking

Iron creek is a basic no frills forest service campground run by an outside concessionaire. There are only 8 sites and they fill up fast because they are right by a very popular trailhead. There is one water pump and one vault toilet in the campground and another vault toilet at the trailhead. The Iron Creek runs behind about 5 of the 8 sites and sounds great. You are far away from the main road so no toad noise but sometimes the hikers will accidentally drive thru the campground loop instead of turning left to get out of the trailhead. The big reason to camp here is access to the hiking trails, especially trail#460 that will take you up the mountains to Sawtooth Lake. AMAZING hike.
