Cedar Canyon Campground

Cedar Canyon Campground offers a unique, primitive camping experience tucked away between Fritch Fortress and Sanford-Yake. As a federal site managed by the USFS, this location provides a rugged, open-air setting where campers can enjoy beach-style camping directly along the shoreline. With no designated individual sites, it is the perfect spot for those looking to escape the crowds and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the Southwest landscape.

While the area remains open year-round, visitors should be prepared for the terrain. The ground can become soft and difficult to navigate during rainy conditions, so please exercise caution when driving off paved surfaces. The campground is best suited for tent campers who appreciate a back-to-basics approach to nature and enjoy the flexibility of open-beach access.

Despite the primitive nature of the campsites, the facility does provide essential amenities for your comfort. The parking area includes access to restrooms equipped with flush toilets and potable water. The site is also ADA accessible, ensuring that more visitors can enjoy this peaceful stretch of Texas wilderness.
