What Guests Are Saying

South Fork campground offers spacious sites with stunning views, clean facilities, and a peaceful atmosphere, making it a top choice for campers. Guests appreciate the attentive and friendly camp host, Debbie, who maintains the bathrooms impeccably. The nearby trails and creek add to the campground's charm, although some sites are close together, and there are occasional concerns about fire pit maintenance.

Beautiful secluded area. The creek was rushing and the vaulted bathrooms were very clean. It was the perfect stay for 2 nights in early June.

It's good! Great creek to bathe in if you can deal with cold mountain water. No cell service anywhere in Bighorn National Forest. Bring your own drinking water and your hiking boots and be bear aware

Very nice and well-maintained campground. Beautiful setting along the south fork of Clear Creek. The one upgrade that would be helpful is electrical hookups so RV and 5th wheel campers don't feel the need to run generators.
