Campers regularly cited stunning mountain views and quality dispersed sites accessible via a long, narrow backcountry road. Several guests observed the challenging drive but found the sites worth the effort, with no water available on-site.

Great spot!

Have to use Cook Creek like the comment below says. Pin doesn’t work well. It’s just past a river around a bend when heading east on the south side. You’ll see signs off the pavement for Cook Creek campground. Keep on driving up staying on the main road. It takes a bit before seeing camp sites, but eventually they are numbered. 17 I believe are numbered along the way. Stayed at number 5 and it was great!
