About

Situated along the banks of the tranquil Miller River in Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, Miller River Group Campground offers stunning scenery in the northern Cascade Range. Nestled in a mixed conifer forest, the 17 sites are widely spaced and within walking distance to the river, creating an ideal setting for visitors wanting to enjoy the serenity of an isolated woodland location. The campground serves as an excellent base for year-round recreation. During summer and early fall, visitors enjoy hiking the nearby Dorothy Lake Trail and fishing along the Miller River. Winter months bring opportunities for skiing and snowshoeing. The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest's 1,500 miles of trails offer everything from smooth paths through deep forests to challenging mountain ascents. This reservation-only group campground is perfect for family reunions and club outings. The facility provides drinking water from a hand pump, vault toilets, picnic tables at each site, and garbage service. The campground is hemmed in by designated wilderness areas including the Alpine Lakes Wilderness, which features over 700 lakes and ponds dotting glacier-carved terrain.
