Anglers and creek enthusiasts can access Lake Creek's rapids directly from this compact Forest Service campground in Shoshone National Forest. The basic loop layout accommodates RVs up to 22 feet, with most sites being smaller back-ins and one pull-through option. A vault toilet serves the center of the campground.
Lake Creek flows adjacent to the sites, creating loud rapids that mask road noise from the nearby highway. An old bridge provides a viewing spot for watching the water's power. The campground operates from late June through early September, with mosquito protection essential during summer months. Campers should practice bear safety protocols, as this area sees grizzly activity.
