About
US Forest Service campground. There are 6 separate tent platform sites here. Each site has a tent platform that can be covered by a tarp, picnic table, and a fire ring. Close access to the boat launch on the Situk River. There is a large pavillion with many picnic tables, a fire ring, and a grill for day use only. Pack out what you pack in. Open season: as long as road is open. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
