Weekend Trip to Canyon Creek Campground

This was a return stay for me - the site is safe and secure for a solo female traveler, has toilets and showers, and is super convenient. The host/manager was available when I arrived and the site itself had both grass and gravel to choose from for pitching my tent.

Weekend Trip to Canyon Creek Campground

This was a perfect little stop overnight. I had a flat graveled tent site with grass surrounding, there’s full service bathrooms and showers, and the creek is quite close. They’ve developed a nice little path along the river to explore. I’ll stay again.
