Hap Hawkins Campground

Five campsites spread along Clark Canyon Reservoir offer a quieter alternative to busier spots around the water. Hap Hawkins Campground sits four miles down a dirt road from the main route, which keeps crowds lighter during weekdays. The Bureau of Reclamation manages this drive-in facility with metal fire rings, picnic tables, and two vault toilets that reviewers note stay well-stocked and clean.

A picnic shelter provides covered space, though the water pump handle appears broken according to recent visitors. AT&T users report 1-2 bars of LTE service. Campers can stay up to 14 days, and the remote access road helps maintain the low-key atmosphere even when other sites fill up on weekends.

Very quiet spot

This campground is one of several that are for free along this reservoir. This one definitely was the least packed during the week. There are 5 spots & they each have picnic tables & metal fire rings. There are two vault toilets which were stocked & clean. There is also a picnic shelter & trash cans located there. It was very quiet even with 3 other campers Friday evening. This spot is harder to get to compared to the others since you have to travel 4 miles down a dirt road. I had 1-2 bars of LTE via AT&T while outside my camper. 14 day max. There’s a water pump by the shelter but the handle looks broken.
