Excellent small camp ground right at the start of the trail to the top of Arc Dome. Recommend a 4 wheel drive vehicle on the road to campground. We made it in a 4x4 Sprinter without any trouble. The road is never particularly steep, just rutted out in a few places. Campground has a vault toilet and water. Sites on the Northern side abut a creek that was still running in September. Great place to camp if you are planning hiking up Arc Dome.

We went there the first week of October. Nice campground at the end of a pretty nasty road.(Do not attempt to drive this road if it has rained, is raining, or is threatening rain.) Beautiful aspen trees changing color. Stewart Creek still running. Sun reaches camp late in the morning. Vault toilets, tables and grills.

Very nice campground situated next to Stewart Creek and within yards of the Arc Dome wilderness boundary. The hike into the wild along established trails is exceptionally good and rewarding. The Fall colors are amazing. Will definitely go camping there again in the future!

Beautiful camp at the end of a dirt road in the aspens. Great hiking from the campsite. Some sites have creek access. Subaru made it up the dirt road just fine. Don't follow Google maps directions - follow USFS directions and logic. There are some open areas along the road to camp in case you arrived and all sites taken.
