My Review 

Although this campground was small, it was located on North Fork Creek. The sound of the water rushing down the creek bed was delightful. We've been back a couple of times. The campground host, Bob, was very friendly and informative.

How did you find out about this campground? 

Bait store in Big Pine.

Pros and cons? 

The campground and rest rooms were very clean, and they had some water-side sites with shade.

Because there are no reservations, you must get to the campground early Friday in order to get a water-side site. There are no shower facilities or electricity.

Nearby attractions? 

Big Pine has a number of small Ma and Pa restaurants and stores. Sabrina Lake is several miles east of this campground.
