About this campground
Located approx. 19 miles upstream from Orleans, this access offers a bathroom, information kiosk and plenty of river access for bank fishing. The boat launch is large enough to launch drift and jet boats and is a very popular access for rafters floating down from Happy Camp. Due to the high use of this access, no parking or camping is allowed at the boat ramp, only at the south end of the river bar. For all boating on the Klamath, please read the restrictions on the Karuk Ceremonial dates. Water and garbage service are not provided. Bring enough water for drinking, cooking and washing as well as extra water to drown campfires each day. Please take all trash, garbage, fish guts and dog droppings with you when you leave. Dogs on leash only.
