Available Nov 13–15 · 2 nights25 sites open for every nightA forested campground near trout fishing, and hiking. Most campsites have no hookups, and RV fit varies by site.
The campground is a base for creek-side recreation: trout fishing is a major draw year-round along Cooper Creek, and several short, interconnected trails begin at or very near the campground so forming a loop hike is straightforward. 7 miles); the nearby Duncan Ridge Trail provides a longer, more challenging option.








Length limits vary by campsite.

“Great get away I love the fact that there is no phone service . I am on my phone with work all day long and it was so nice to get away from all the hustle and bustle . You can go to the top of the mountain and get service to check in if needed .”
“The campground was very clean. My specific campsite was small but I knew that when I reserved it. The area is absolutely gorgeous! Right along the river so you have access to it very easily. I can't wait to come back again! ”

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 (7,410 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.
