Standard Site Away from Most Weather

Stayed here one Saturday night. Got there around 5 pm and while there were still several sites available none were by the creek. Ended up at one of the more secluded ones that matches most Forest drive in campsites. Has a Picnic table, fire pit and a place to park 2 cars. Bathrooms were spaced every comes of sights and were well maintained. At a lower attitude than most sites in the area and less likely to be rained on. It is a good over night for the Sleeping Beauty Hike.

Tucked away on a creek

This is one of those great USFS campgrounds in the Gifford Pinchot. It's small, maybe a dozen sites, and about half of those sites are on a delightful little creek.

While there's plenty of space between most sites, there's not a ton of vegetation between them, so you're definitely going to see your neighbors. Though, on a Saturday in July, this campground was only about half full. That half was, of course, the creekside half.
