Camping at Panther Flat Campground near Gasquet

Public campground · Gasquet · 38 campsites

A forested campground near trout fishing, and mountain biking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.

About this campground

Recreation is focused on the Smith River and the surrounding backcountry: swimming, sunbathing, rafting and fishing are all common from the campground's doorstep, and anglers target salmon, steelhead and cutthroat trout. The river can run placid or push whitewater up to Class 5, so plan river activities with current water and safety information in hand.

How far ahead to book Panther Flat Campground

For July weekends, book about 160 days ahead. Three in four July Friday and Saturday arrivals were booked later than that, and half were booked 92 days or less before arrival. Past timing is guidance, not a guarantee of what is open now.

Arrival monthFri/Sat arrivals: half booked at leastA quarter at leastOther days: half booked at leastA quarter at least

August73 days ahead148 days ahead39 days ahead114 days ahead
September40 days ahead95 days ahead35 days ahead82 days ahead

Months with fewer than 30 reservations of that kind are left blank. Sites where nearly every booking was made the day of arrival (pay on arrival) are left out. Closed seasons, windows not yet released for booking, and currently unavailable nights are separate from this history.

Based on Recreation.gov reservations, FY2015–2025 (10,189 reservations in the years scored). Counts reservations made, not nights actually camped: cancellations aren't in the data, and nights a site was closed count as not booked. FY2020–21 (COVID) are left out of the scores.
