About
O'Neil Creek Campground is a rustic Forest Service campground nestled in the Klamath National Forest of Northern California. The campground sits in a forested setting along O'Neil Creek, providing access to the greater Klamath River corridor known for its fishing and rafting opportunities. This primitive campground offers basic amenities typical of national forest sites, including vault toilets. However, there is no potable water available, so campers must bring an adequate water supply. The area offers wildlife viewing opportunities and serves as a base for exploring the surrounding Klamath Mountains. The campground is managed by the Happy Camp/Oak Knoll Ranger District and honors America the Beautiful Senior and Access passes. The 14-day stay limit applies, with a maximum of 30 camping days per calendar year within the Klamath National Forest.
