Notices from Recreation.gov

Bears and cougars occur in the area. Any time you are away from your campsite and when sleeping at night, you are required to store all food, beverages, garbage and other attractants so they are unavailable to bears and other wildlife. Proper storage is usually in your vehicle or an approved container. See the campground host for further details.

SCRS & Recreation.gov policy states we will hold your reserved site until check-out time on the day after the scheduled arrival date. If you haven't occupied it at any time during this period, your reservation is null and void and will be given to first come first serve campers. Your reservation will be a no show and no refund will be given.

Day Use parking available for a fee. Pay at site or by purchasing a day use season pass before arrival online here.

Off-highway vehicle operation is prohibited in the campground.
