About

Rock Creek Campground sits along Rock Creek near where it meets the Chiwawa River, approximately 20 miles up Chiwawa River Road from Lake Wenatchee. The campground features 8 campsites located in a valley floor setting, surrounded by the scenic landscapes of Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. The campground serves as a trailhead for the Rock Creek Trail and Estes Butte Trail, making it popular with hikers exploring the backcountry. The campground operates on a first-come, first-served basis only with no advance reservations available. Visitors can pay for campsites on-site using cash, check, or by scanning a QR code with the Recreation.gov mobile app where cellular service permits. Basic amenities include vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire pits at each site. No potable water is available, so campers must bring their own drinking water. The campground can accommodate trailers up to 30 feet. Sites cost $20 per night with an additional vehicle fee of $7-10 per night. Interagency Senior and Access passes receive a 50% discount on the single campsite fee.
