Ratings Summary
I have many great memories of camping here with my family. The area is really beautiful. In the past you could drive an RV right up to a boondocking spot on the river but unfortunately those spots are now closed. There are still spots in the area but in the campground itself the Forest Service has added posts to restrict access. Only a few spots are now suitable for RVs due to the posts.
If you do choose to come here be aware that the dirt road is fairly rutted and mixed with red cinders.
No cell service on AT&T and Verizon.
Nightly Rate: $12.00
