Cottonwood Pit Campground

3 sites · RV, Tent
In the words of a YouTube-famous gnarly surfer bro, this camp is so pitted. Like seriously though. Cottonwood Pit Campground smack in the middle of an old gravel pit. When excavation hit the water table, the site was abandoned. There are only three established campsites and one vault toilet, but there is plenty of room to bring larger vehicles and set up glamp. Many people come for the swimming hole that is also occasionally stocked with trout. This site’s free but do bring H20 and keep this pit classy by hauling away your garbage elsewhere. Check the camp website for alerts and advisories.
