Herring Creek Campground offers a rustic, back-to-basics escape for those looking to immerse themselves in the quiet beauty of a mixed conifer forest. Located just off Highway 108 near Herring Creek, this USFS-managed site provides a serene environment for campers who prefer a more secluded and authentic outdoor experience. Its year-round accessibility makes it a versatile destination for those seeking a getaway in the heart of the woods.

As a primitive facility, it relies on vault toilets, and visitors should be prepared to pack in their own potable water, as none is available on-site.
