About
Located 12 miles southwest of Leavenworth along Icicle Road, Johnny Creek Campground occupies a forested setting near where Johnny Creek flows into Icicle Creek. The campground is split into two sections: the Upper Campground positioned above Icicle Road and the Lower Campground situated closer to the creek. Together they offer 65 campsites, including 56 single sites and 9 double sites, accommodating tents, trailers up to 50 feet, and RVs. Each site is equipped with a picnic table and fire ring with grate. Amenities include vault toilets and potable water available from a hand pump. Firewood can be purchased from the camp host. Payment is accepted via cash or check, or campers can use the Recreation.gov mobile app's Scan and Pay feature by scanning QR codes at the site. The app should be downloaded before arrival due to limited cellular service in the area.

The Alpine Lakes Wilderness and numerous trailheads are accessible from the Icicle Road corridor.
