We love this location; quiet, easy to get too and small. The only drawback is that no one is taking care of it, and the bushes and grass have gotten so high that you can't see the river anymore from the campsite.
Gorgeous, off the beaten path, a wonderful relaxing campground, bathroom NO SHOWERS, well maintained. Firepits, next to a flowing creek. We will be coming back
I want to clarify something confusing to me and others about this campground. When you look at the Google aerial map OR you are driving north on Route 12. Your eyes are drawn to the area on the right side of Road 12 with the pavilion and two campsites($5/night). This NOT the main campground. The main campground is 200 feet north along the river. If you come south to Red Bridge Campground on Road 12 or from the BLM webpage, it will seem like the campground is missing two of the seven campsites. THOSE two campsites are the two with the pavilion 200 feet south of the main campground. , Picnic table, fire ring and parking spur for each campsite. One vault toilet and NO drinking water here. We visited here September 21 2021.
Great campsite but there are 6 spots by the river but it starts to feel crowded with 2 spots filled. Also the chipmunks 🐿 ate through one of my water jugs.
Nice shade trees. Very tough fishing even with (or because of) the low water.
