Small but nice campground

Only has five sites, but all are really nice, spacious and clean. Pit toilets were surprisingly very clean and well kept. The sound of the river is very peaceful to listen to.

Small, quiet campground

Small forested campground with about 5 sites, situated along the Wood River. Quiet aside from a few cattle trucks during the day. Mostly just peaceful river sounds. Good for tents, vans or smaller trailers. Road in is about 10 miles of graded gravel.

Quiet Riverside Camp

Beautiful riverside campground with a small amount of spots, 5. Darker and less views than Brown Mtn CG further west but it is still a wonderful site. Loads of wildlife.
