I've been going to these campgrounds with my family for over 20 years. These campgrounds are fantastic. They are quiet campgrounds spaced at a good distance from eachother. The campground offers running water, outhouses, a picknick table, fire rings (to only be used with a Fire Permit), and parking. It is about 5 miles to the town of Pine Flat, so emergency Fire services, and basic mini marts needs can be met. Alot with being near California hot springs, which provide a small deli, a mini store, ice cream, ECT, and the spring water. The campgrounds themselves are great for a 2 week vacation away from the world. The creek sits right against the campgrounds. Fishing is a great activity, when the waters are high, and fish have been planted. A five minute hike up the creek gives you perfect little water fall, with multiple pools, and a nice open area for relaxing. The trails are small, a not for the inexperienced. You can hike along the creek for a difficult hike (involves climbing, over and under: large rocks, trees, bushes, etc. Crossing the creek multiple times, many obstacles, and beautiful scenery. With so many memories, this campground is like home for our family. It is our go to spot to get away from everything. Take your friends, take your family, bring your supplies, and disappear. I cannot wait to bring my new family to these campgrounds, and share many more years, and making many more memories.

This used to be such a beautiful place to camp and enjoy but the last 2 times I went it was very dangerous! The road is disintegrating from the rain and snow melt, and there are fallen trees everywhere!! You can’t even get through the road anymore :,(

My friends have a cabin just down the road at White River Summer homes Tract. So I have stayed here when the cabin was too full. It's a very nice campground. White River is right there. And a nice little water fall very close by. Will go back again. Just remember to pick up all your trash and stuff. There are no little trash ferries that come and clean up after you. Always try to leave it cleaner than when you got it. 😀
