Silver Creek Marsh

3 ReviewsAdd Review

Accessible via paved road with significant cracks and damage, Silver Creek Marsh operates as a Forest Service campground within the Fremont National Forest from May through November. The facility accommodates RVs up to 25 feet and provides level, well-shaded sites that can handle larger trailers, though some sites offer less tree cover for satellite access needs.

Campers find clean pit toilets stocked with supplies and well-maintained facilities throughout the grounds. The campground includes horse corrals at one end and typically sees light use, with visitors often having sites to themselves during weeknights. Cell service remains unavailable in this area, making it suitable for those planning to disconnect during their stay.

Many visitors appreciated the spacious, level sites and clean facilities at this quiet Forest Service campground. Common feedback included poor road conditions with washboard sections and large cracks requiring careful driving.

Great sites, bumpy road

Came in on 4th of July and lots of sites were available. Sites are level, well shaded and several are long and can handle big trailers. Some sites have less shade if you need StarLink access. Pit toilets are clean and have plenty of TP.

The paved road in is not maintained well and has huge cracks every 20 feet, some that could take out a wheel. But the slow bumpy trip was worth it.

Quiet and peaceful

We were headed to Thompson Creek reservoir, but opted for this lovely little FS campground.  We had the place to ourselves the first night and another camper came in for the 2nd.  Easy pull-through site, pretty level and fit both rigs.  Otherwise plenty of room between sites.

It was a bit of a trek down gravel roads to get here.  Took it easy, though, and no problems.

 Lovely walks and hikes to be had.  Beautiful stargazing.  Clean pit toilets and clean overall campground.  There were corrals at one end for horse camping.  No cell service. (in 2020)

4 stars only because of the sometimes-washboard road to get here.

From here we visited Crack in the ground, Cowboy Dinner Tree, The Sand Dunes, Fort Rock and Christmas Valley.
