This is a good campsite! It can definitely fill up,but there is usually a spot to stay. Some traffic noise, since it is very close to the highway, but the rod isn’t very busy.
RangerA gem spot
I've hiked to Jerry Johnson hot springs plenty of times, and finally decided to check out the campground! The site was really clean, the outhouses were immaculate! Honestly the nicest outhouse I have ever seen. I went during early October and the larches and deciduous trees were showing great fall colors. The campsite is a little close to the highway, but it was not very loud at night. In the fall, there is a reasonable amount of traffic, but I would assume it gets a little heavier in the summer.
