What campers say

Wood River Campground is a small, no-fee site reached by about 11 miles of gravel road, offering quiet, scenic camping and easy access for day hikes (including nearby Kirwin). Visitors commonly describe a peaceful, well-kept setting with basic facilities—a vault toilet is available—but only a few primitive sites are provided, so availability can be limited. Because there are no reservations or fees, larger RVs may occupy sites for extended stays, and occasional maintenance or seasonal closures have been reported. Bring insect repellent and be prepared for a short gravel approach and limited amenities.
