Patrick Creek Campground

They have a predictable mosquito problem but the bathrooms are well maintained. There is road noise also predictable. This area of the Smith River is very nice for swimming and exploring. We had a lot of fun in the water.

Good place before the fire. Heart breaking fire. 199 has always been a little challenging for some people. Now everyone should use caution when traveling on it.

Did t stay, just passed thru but looked like a nice place to stay

Great campground on the creek that has a awesome swimming hole. Just make sure to pick the lucky site for easy access down. Everything was clean and conveniently located right off the road. Sites are spaced well and have plenty of room.

Great family camp ground! Its clean, and beautiful! We had camp site 1 and although its a little of a walk to the bathroom, its a good shady spot with enough room for several tents. Plus its own trail to the river! Bring lanterns and flashlights for late night bathroom trips! The water is super clean and beautiful, but cold even at the end of july. In the high 80°F weather, that was welcomed though! Good shallow spots for kids, bring river shoes though because it is rocky. Mosquitoes were an issue at night but that's normal. There are no showers, so be prepared for that. My biggest issue was that there was no soap in either the mens or womens bathroom. But you can bring soap to use. Bathrooms were kept clean, so that's good. Camp host was very nice and told us where we could buy firewood. Spickets are scattered around with clean drinking water, and there are several well kept trails, some paved, some not. Beautiful place to walk around, just beware of poison oak. I would recommend this campsite or even the day use area! Especially for people with little ones as most of the campground has good shallow spots. There are spots that are deep though for adults!
