About

The campground is popular with ATV enthusiasts due to its direct access to the 3.5-mile Partridge Creek ATV Trail. It also serves as a convenient stop along the scenic Elk River Backcountry Byway. Facilities are minimal, with vault toilets available but no potable water or trash services. Campers should come prepared to pack out all garbage and bring sufficient drinking water. The campground operates seasonally from May through October, with no reservations accepted. All sites are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
