The campground is situated in a forest of mixed hardwoods and conifers at an elevation of 1,780 feet. The Klamath River, a popular site for salmon fishing, runs alongside the site.
Recreation: The Klamath and Salmon Rivers offer excellent fishing, swimming and whitewater rafting opportunities. Fishing for salmon and steelhead during the fall and early winter months is considered the finest in California. Hunting is also a popular pastime, with game including blacktail deer, black bear, blue grouse and quail.
