Lots of fire wood right now?

Quiet during the week, I had the place to myself. They have been working on it taking out timber. Brush piles all over the place. 2 sites still closed. But still a nice place.

Beautiful spot in the forest

This is a clean, quiet, out of the way campground about 20 minutes drive off Interstate 90. It has numerous camping sites that are dispersed, and is close to several excellent hiking trails.

Access not well suited for large RV’s or 5th wheels (narrow roads/bridges and lots of low hanging tree limbs). Smaller trailer campers are great.

Great camping in tall ponderosa pines

Grizzly campground is a nice campground in a tall Ponderosa pine forest.  Campground is named for Grizzly creek which joins Ranch Creek at the campground, Ranch Creek flows along the edge of the campground.  Campsites are nicely spread apart.  Each of the nine campsites has a picnic table and metal fire ring.  The campground has water, trash service a Accessible vault toilets, several older vault toilets which are not ADA accessible are also available in the campground.  No Grizzlies where seen during our visit.  Since the campground is on a side road a mile from Rock Creek the campground was very quiet due to the lack of car traffic.
