Stanislaus River Campground

Stanislaus River Campground offers a classic, back-to-basics outdoor experience nestled within a beautiful, mature conifer forest. Located along the scenic North Fork of the Stanislaus River, this federal site provides a tranquil escape for those looking to disconnect and immerse themselves in nature. The surrounding terrain is defined by its dense woodlands and proximity to the river, creating a peaceful backdrop for your stay.

This primitive campground features 25 individual campsites, each equipped with a picnic table for your convenience. On-site facilities are straightforward, providing access to vault toilets and hand-pumped water to support your stay.

It serves as an ideal base for those who value quiet surroundings and the raw beauty of the California wilderness. Please come prepared for a remote experience, as this site offers a simple, rugged connection to the great outdoors.
