Spring Creek Campground

I love this campground! There are a couple double size first come first serve sites at the top of the hill we've used in the past for 15 Cub Scout families for late season camping. Bring water, late season/after Labor Day water may or may not be on. Road is pretty decent, I've seen sedans up here before. Road to the look out requires high clearance and 4WD, it was closed to the public due to COVID this year. The views from the saddle below the peak are great though! This campground is almost exactly 2 hours from Middleton and mostly highway speeds there. I try to get up here at least once a summer. We've camped both the weekend before Memorial Day and the weekend after Labor Day - both times it got below freezing. Campground is fully in the trees, it'll be almost lunch time before you get sun in most of the campsites.

Our camp hosts were the best! They welcomed us, accommodated our needs and informed us of sites in the area. Toilets, pads, fire pits, etc. were clean and tidy. Kudos to them and to the USFS for hiring them!

Beautiful and tranquil, Spring Creek has to be one of the most peaceful campgrounds we’ve ever been to. The drive to the campsite took a little while, but it was well worth it. Mike and his wife were lovely hosts, very friendly and welcoming. We’d definitely camp at Spring Creek again if we’re ever planning a road trip in the area.

We enjoyed this campground immensely. It was beautiful and well kept. Many trails to hike in the area.
The camp hosts were friendly and knowledgeable.
Just a note about getting there. A few miles before you reach Spring Creek the road forks. It isn't clearly marked which way Spring Creek is. The sign shows "campgrounds" to the right. Turn right here at the fork. This is Forest Road 09. The campground is clearly marked down the way.
Also, there is no cell coverage at the campground but if you hike up Juniper Ridge (the camp hosts will tell you where to pick up the trail) you can get service there- texts and email at least.

Great shade, friendly hosts, and a wonderful family nature trail loop around the campground. The creek running the campground is great for the kids to play and explore too!
