Crowned Creek on South Boundary Road

Drive-in access here is almost entirely paved, with only the short driveway into the site remaining unpaved. The campground holds a single site with a central fire pit, set close enough to the road that passing vehicles are audible, though traffic is infrequent. At night, the forest goes genuinely silent, with no ambient insect noise. A secondary unpaved road extends further in, but it was heavily overgrown and showed no signs of recent use. Campers interested in campsites near White Pine will find this a low-amenity, one-night stop suited to those passing through Ottawa National Forest rather than staging a longer stay.
