This is a series of 3 separate campgrounds all located on Chena Hot Springs rd over about 15 miles. All are dry camping, with only non-potable water and no dump stations. First up at mile marker 27 is Rosehip. 37 nice large sites able handle 45' rigs on all level gravel pads. In a semi-wooded setting. The campground was redone a few years ago. Next up is Garnite Tors at mile marker 39. It has 24 sites of medium to large size. Mostly wooded setting. Trailhead to Granite Tors trail. Moose in the area, beware. Last is a small one called Red Squirrel at mile marker 43. It has 12 sites suitable mostly for tent campers. There is a nice grassy area for the tents.
