Great campground. A lot quieter than being in the valley. Road was only a little rough - friends were able to do it in their Prius. The creek was low in August, so might be best to just have enough water with you. Another area of the creek was higher but the water didn't seem to be moving much. No cell service in the campground - there are a few spots on the road out

This campground is billed as “tents only” but since it’s not enforced it’s just like any old campground with lots of RVs. One RV near us had some light shining into our tent until very late. Our site was filled with lots of small trash on the ground when we arrived. Also, the drive from the main road was tedious. It’s fine for a Prius or an RV but if you’re looking to stay a couple of days and hike around, you’re gonna spend an extra 30 to 60 minutes driving in a car each day compared to staying at White Wolf or Porcupine Flats.
The rock formations right next to our campsite were amazing. A small creek wiggled through the granite slabs and drops. Beautiful place to watch for shooting stars after dark.
This C+ campgrounds could easily be an A- if someone was like let’s have one campground for just tents…

Great site! Definitely a rough road to drive in on, I recommend 4wd. But a beautiful and peaceful campground!

One of my favorite campgrounds in the Sierras. Nice to have the creek right next to the campsite. Take a walk to the upper falls and enjoy the breathtaking view.
