About Seedhouse Campground

Seedhouse Campground is a gateway to the Mount Zirkel Wilderness along the Elk River with plenty of opportunities for hiking, biking, horseback riding, camping, off highway vehicles, hunting, fishing, river rafting and more. At an elevation of 8,000 feet, Seedhouse Campground lies in the mountains of the Park Range near the Middle Fork of the Elk River.

There are 24 campsites, 15 of which may be reserved. Remaining sites are first-come, first-served. There are two hand pump water systems throughout the campground.

Site 16 was fantastic. Lots of shade, sound of the creek, away from other sites. Gorgeous views with amazing wildflowers. Took 1 star off because there is no camp host (on site firewood sales). Wood must be purchased at the Clark Store about 30 minutes away. Would have been nice to know before we arrived at our site.

Managers not keeping up with campground needs. Arrived on Friday afternoon, there was less than half a roll of TP in the women's latrine. Fortunately I always pack a roll! By Saturday afternoon the TP was stocked but the latrine was not very clean. It's a shame that all the sites were reserved yet at least half of them were never occupied all weekend. Managers need to follow-through with policy of canceling reservations if people don't show up for it the first night. Many cars were driving through looking for a site. A bunch of sites were unoccupied but marked "reserved."

Love it here, been here several times. It’s just a nice little lace to get away and enjoy the mountains. Mosquitos and flies were bad this trip but never had that much trouble before. Enjoy staying here.

Can hear the river all night and the fishing up the road was awesome. Hooked into a couple of greenbacks. Couldn’t have asked for better weather too.

Campground host was helpful and we enjoyed our stay. Visited Pearl Lake and hunted but saw no elk or deer.

Great spot near an awesome fly fishing location. Had a blast and loved catching cutthroats out of the elk river!
