Gold Basin Campground
Gold Basin Campground is the largest campground on the Mountain Loop Highway and offers the most developed and accessible camping experience.
There is a large, open field suitable for frisbee throwing and baseball play. Across the road from the campground is Gold Basin Pond, a salmon fry viewing area. The 1/2-mile boardwalk is accessible to wheelchairs, and benches are provided on the viewing platforms for the more contemplative visitor to sit awhile.
Visit Recreation.gov for fee and reservation information, open season dates, and first-come first-serve availability.
