About

Nestled in a secluded forest setting along Grouse Creek near the Chiwawa River, Grouse Creek Group Campground is a hidden gem for groups seeking a quiet getaway in the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. Located approximately 7 miles up Forest Service Road 6200, the campground sits at the end of a gated spur road alongside the creek, offering a peaceful and private setting. This group-only facility accommodates up to 50 guests and is equipped with picnic tables, campfire rings, and accessible vault toilets. The site operates on a reservation-only basis at $60 per night, with day use available for $8. No potable water or electrical hookups are available, and visitors must pack out all trash to the dumpster at Goose Creek Campground several miles away. The area offers abundant recreational opportunities including fishing in Grouse Creek and the nearby Chiwawa River, hiking, mountain biking, and wildlife viewing. The location provides access to the diverse landscapes of the Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, from old-growth forests to rugged alpine terrain. Winter activities such as skiing and snowmobiling are popular in the district, though the campground itself closes seasonally due to snow.
