This state-managed campground provides drive-in access via a gravel loop road that accommodates large RVs. Sites feature mature trees and picnic tables, with vault toilets and trash service available throughout the area. Campers can access the river directly from the campground, though the immediate water access works better for fishing than swimming.
The campground operates without utilities or fees, following a pack-in, pack-out policy. Summer weekends draw crowds, so early arrival helps secure preferred sites. Verizon cell service does not reach the area. For safer swimming access, campers can walk or drive up the road to find beach-style river entry points. Sunburst Ranch sits less than a mile away for those wanting a different camping experience.
