About
US Forest Service campground. Cover Campground has seven campsites that are shaded by a stand of Douglas fir. Bring your swimsuit because this campground has quick access to local swimming spots. This campground has beautiful views of Jackson Creek all year long, but in the spring, butterflies can be seen flying along the shores of the creek. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
