This campground was beautiful and a quick drive out of Vegas. Huge shoutout to Bob and Liz, the hosts, for being so friendly and helpful to everybody. He helped a big trailer back in near us expertly. The campground also said full, but he had someone leave their reservation early so he hooked us up with a spot for one night. Site 10 is at the end of the campground and has nice shade and privacy. The views were spectacular and the temperature was perfect. Cooler than Vegas, but not cold at night like other mountain spots.

Some bugaboos… no showers :( the tent pad was super firm and bent tent stakes. Bees!! The second we started cooking and washing dishes they were everywhere! No stings and they cleared out quickly. None of these were a big enough deal to detract from enjoying though. It would have been nice to stay another day and check out the hiking trail.

We loved this campground! Site 9 has a bridge across the creek to the site (most sites did not have the bridge, maybe 3 or 4 in all) making it feel like a little private island. The ranger trail is accessible from the campground and runs in either direction. This is not a loop! It connects to other campgrounds in Humboldt National Forest and spans more than 60 miles. We hiked out and back several times and drove the success loop (a beautiful scenic gravel road). One downside was the overgrowth of trees and weeds due to the campground being closed until recently, but there was plenty of shade. With the high elevation the nights did get chilly even though the days were warm. Drinking water available and pit toilets. No electric or hookups and no cell service. Overall, this campground was beautiful and a lovely place to spend a few quiet days relaxing.

This campground has full and partial hookup sites. The roads are gravel and wind their way up a steep hill, but the sites provide decent privacy. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Pit toilets are located in one of the loops, but there are bathrooms with showers near the host site. There is a hiking trail directly from camp into the forest. We loved the serenity of being away from town in the woods where all we could hear were the birds and the creek nearby (and the thunderstorm that passed thru).
