Meadow Creek Campground

We had a pleasant one-night stay (for the most part) on one of the few waterfront sites. Very clean vault toilet. Weak ATT service, but much stronger with a booster. $15/night. Only a 3-star because this campground is right next to train tracks with trains blasting their horns at 8:40PM and 12:40AM on the Sunday night we stayed.

Great campground

You can choose ambiance in the first loop or river front in the second loop. Just be aware that the river is noisy. It’s pack it in and pack it out so, no garbage collection. Cell reception for T Mobile is a strong 1-2 bars. No trouble streaming. One of the best forest service campgrounds. $15 a night. $7.50 with senior discount. The only major problem is that dogs are not on leashes and no one is around to enforce the leash law.

I always love coming to this campground. This year they have a new host and she was amazing. Grounds never looked so clean.

Bathrooms are spotless.

Nice, quiet campsite. Make sure to get there early for a spot! Buck Mountain Trail #176 is a great hike or bike in the area. If you scramble to the top of the mountain, there is an incredible view of the Cabinets and the Selkirks. Watch out for grizzly and black bears in this area! The creek along the campsite is cool and clean.
