Fishing, hiking, and wildlife viewing draw campers to this US Forest Service site set within Sawtooth National Forest, where the Bear Creek drainage provides a natural focal point for outdoor activity. The campground runs seasonally from May 1 through September 30. Nearby, Bear Creek Campground sits roughly a mile to the southeast, giving anglers and hikers a second base option along the same corridor. This site works best for campers who want direct access to national forest terrain without traveling far from the Bear Creek area.
