Get a Site on the River

Off the beaten path, on the way to Bagby Hotsprings. This pretty little campground is on the Collawash River. A few of the sites back up to the river and those are the best ones.

If you don't get a riverside site, there is no access to the river unless you cut through someone's site. That's the only bummer about this place.

$26 for dry camping with a picnic table. Can't remember if there was drinking water. Pit toilets.
