Canal Creek Group Campground

Canal Creek is a group campground shaded by Douglas fir and spruce trees with two group campsites, each providing a tranquil, scenic setting. Canal Creek flows through the campground, dividing the two sites. Site 1 is accessed by fording the gentle creek. It has a large open field with a picnic shelter, tables and a campfire circle. The site accommodates up to 100 people and 20 vehicles. RVs are not recommended. Site 2 is bordered by the creek. It is made up of 10 separate campsites surrounding a central dining area with tables and a campfire circle. The site accommodates up to 50 people and 10 vehicles. RVs are welcome. Vault toilets are provided, but no drinking water or electric hookups are available at either site.

Nearby activities include fishing and crawfishing, hiking, tubing and swimming.

Current Conditions
5/19/25: The Canal Creek Bridge that connects the two group campsites is closed.
