Description

State Park

Semi-primitive camping facilities are located within the Soldier Meadows Hot Spring Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC). Facilities in this area include primitive campsites (parking areas and fire pits), a vault toilet, a primitive cabin, and walking trails that lead to the hot springs. There are seven defined campsites in the ACEC. Five are located in the Hot Creek Campground, one is at the Cabin Site, and the last is located above the Hidden Spring to the west of the main hot springs area. The primitive cabin is available for public use on a first-come first-served basis. Note that Soldier Meadows is one of the most highly visited areas in the NCA. If you are looking for solitude, this may not be your place.

Perfect winter camp spot

Went here the first weekend of December. I say perfect winter camp spot because I am going to assume a place like this gets crazy packed in the summer. It was a little cold at night, however, the hot springs are right next to the campsites. The campsites are nice and spread out. There’s also a pit toilet. No running water so make sure you pack enough. There is a little cabin to check out or even stay in, but I recommend a campsite because then you’re closer to the hot springs. 40 miles on a dirt road so just be ready for that with a proper vehicle. Overall super cool spot and will be returning.
