I have been camping at this campground for the last 35 years. Since the FS has turned over management of the campground, to a private company the fees have increased, and the management has decreased. Camping fees and rules are unclear. The signs regarding fees state a campsite and horse corral are a certain amount. The sign does not indicate that only applies to the "undeveloped" campsite immediately adjacent to the horse corrals. Placing a moveable fire pit and a picnic table next to a horse corral does NOT make it a campsite. Campsite in the campground have access to water and a pit toilet. Campsite next to the horse corrals do NOT. Why can't I pay for a campsite in the developed campground and pay for a corral. The private company requires that you pay for a campsite in the campground and pay for a campsite and corral outside of the designated campground, even though in 35 years I have never seen all of the corrals occupied at the same time. I have written the FS and the private company for 2 years and will again this year to bring this issue to their attention. If you camp and have horses your campsite is within 6 feet of the corral. Very little room to saddle your horse outside of the corral if you are also camping in a trailer or tent.

Remote place, very remote :) You need to plan well before going. Amazing location very quiet and calm. If you like hiking, you will really enjoy this place ~ trial heads are very close ….We stayed for 2 days and had a good time! Drive heading to east side of RM would be a nice experience 👌

We did not get to go because of a fire that closed the road to get there and was not offered a refund.

Camp ground was great. Site 16 was nice with an off to the side spot for our tent. Close to the pit toilets but behind the trees. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained for what they are. There’s a hand pump for water which we used primarily for washing and putting out the fire. Hiking trails within walking distance of the camp area. No need to use the car to get to the hiking trailhead.
The one negative is I only needed Thursday and Friday night but because I reserved online, I had to pay for Saturday night too. If I would have waited to pay, if not already reserved, I could have just paid for the nights I wanted at the campground.

Nice campground. Host does a good job keeping the bathrooms and sites clean. He was very friendly. Nice access to hiking trails. Plenty of shade at most sites. Water is available but only one station and it's a hand pump so that knocks down a star.

We stayed three nights with four horses at our two site, 19 and 20. 19 was great for tent camping and our LQ trailer tucked in nicely at 20. We liked the shade of these two sites. The sites were well maintained and the vault toilets clean. We loved the trails!

Please Note: One RV per single site, two RV’S per double site, or one vehicle per single tent site or two vehicles per double tent site. Most sites can accommodate 1 extra vehicle that is not included with the reservation fee. An extra vehicle will be charged a per-night fee and collected at the campground. Trucks with livestock trailers are considered one vehicle; any additional vehicles with the same party would be an extra vehicle and subject to a fee. Extra vehicles may be required to park in a designated overflow area if both vehicles can not safely fit within the designated parking spur of the camping site. |
| General |
Livestock corrals are only available for those who have a livestock site reservation. If you intend to use a regular camping site but want to keep your livestock in a corral, you must reserve both sites for your desired visit dates and pay the site fees. Corrals may not be rented out for a day use fee; they are designated as full fee sites, and all fees associated with the site are required for their use. This may require you to keep a vehicle or a sleeping unit at the site to show occupancy, per usage rules. |
| General |
Check-in time is 2:00 pm, and check-out time is 11:00 amYou must be clear from the site at 11:00 am on your checkout day so the host can come and prepare the site for the next guests. Please don't be the group that makes the incoming group have to wait. |
| General |
Reserved Sites will be held until check out time (ELEVEN) the day following your arrival date. Sites must be occupied by the checkout time of that following day to hold a reservation or the site will be forfeited and released to other guests.Once your reservation start date has begun, neither the Recreation.gov Contact Center nor the campground manager will be able to modify your reservation. |
| General |
Any accepted pass must be entered for the discount at the time of booking for single sites only. |
| General |
Campers may leave the site for 24 hours and must occupy the site otherwise. This allows a camper to go for an overnight backpack trip in the woods for one night and come back to their campsite the next day. If possible, notify a camp host that you are intending to return to your site to fulfill your reserved stay dates. This will help to prevent unauthorized use of your site while you are on your overnight outing. |
| General |
Campers must occupy the site on the first night of their reservation. This prevents booking the site for Fri-Sun and showing up on Saturday. |
| General |
All food, beverages, trash, and scented items must be properly stored when not attended. Bear-proof food lockers are provided at each site, and bear-proof trash receptacles are provided at the campground. Please do not leave any food or cooking devices unattended at your sites, per forest service order. |
| General |
Fire Restrictions: Fire restrictions may be imposed at any time due to hot, dry weather conditions, at which time campfires and charcoal fires may not be allowed. |
| General |
Don't Move Firewood: Prevent the spread of tree-killing organisms by obtaining firewood at or near your destination and burning it on-site. For more information, visit dontmovefirewood.org. Prevent the spread of invasive species by inspecting and cleaning packs, equipment, and tires before using the lake or trails. |
