LegendRiver and Highway
Similar to Salmon River Campground this campground has sites on either side of the highway. Currently the river side is closed for revegetation, erosion control, and habitat restoration. The other side is open.
Dusty gravel roads will loop you through the campground. The sites themselves are dirt and gravel with mostly level parking areas and each site varies in length. We would fit in many of them in our 26' Class C but larger rigs may have a problem.
Each site has fire pit and picnic table. There are pit toilets and hand pump water available as well. There is a dumpster for trash but no recycling. There are no bear boxes so store food appropriately as bears are common in this area.
$16/night
