Tips

🕊️ 𝑻𝒓𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒓

July 8, 2017

While dispersed camping is free all around the vast National Forest, for those who need hookups or showers/toilets, this campground is located conveniently along the hiking trail between the lower and middle McCloud waterfalls.
It is the most popular campground in this Forest Service unit and often busy. It is at an elevation of 3400 feet, it has 39 sites with tables, fire-rings, vault toilets, and piped drinking water but no showers or hook-ups. Suitable for tents and mid-sized RV's or trailers. 14 day limit. $15 per night. The CG has been converted mostly to a reservation system ( recreation.gov ). There are only eight sites that are first come first served. fs.usda.gov/recarea/stnf/recarea/?recid=6583

This campground is located between the lower and middle McCloud waterfalls and offers convenient amenities such as tables, fire-rings, vault toilets, and piped drinking water (but no showers). Because of that, even though dispersed camping is free all around the National Forest, reservations are recommended since there are only eight sites available on a first-come first-served basis and it can fill up pretty quickly.
