Quiet gem nestled amongst nature
This was an unexpectedly nice place. The long drive down the dirt road brings you away from the highway and close to the river. Even at 5 pm there were open sites. A couple sites are double sites and priced accordingly.
There is a gravel pad for parking, tent and picnic table. Surrounding that is forest and flowers. These obstruct direct view of the neighbors on one side and minimize viewing the others. 2 vault toilet locations with numbered water faucets.
Suggestion: site 9 has the restroom light shiny into it. We were fine because our teardrop had no windows in that direction.
My dog and I headed out on the short path from the campground (it leaves from one of the campsites). It joins the Box Canyon Trail and you have a choice of two directions. We went left and found a long but easy hike giving views of the river and even a waterfall. People could be seen fishing and also rafting/tubing down the river. There are other national forest campgrounds in the area with a variety of activities. This is a place to visit!
