It was devastated in 2023. The floods destroyed this area. It's still very beautiful, but the fishing won't return for several years.

One of my favorite areas. Seasonal! 5/6 to 9/24. $26/night + $8 for each additional car. To the best of my memory: ~30 campsites, first come first serve, One of the camp spots has a tiny tributary trickling through it I like to hang my hammock over! There are restrooms(stinky honey hole), a water spicket(by the restroom) fire pit for each camp. Pix are from across hwy.

Very quiet and peaceful. Running creeks near by. Plenty of trail heads and beauty.

One of the better camp grounds in the area. 6 total (3 buildings) bathrooms on the grounds. Small creeks running through. Plenty for the kids to do as far as staying occupied. Beautiful scenery. Most parking spots are smaller, only a couple can fit trailers. Fire rings, tent pads, lots of shade & picnic tables.

After starting at Barton Flatts we wanted to see if we can stay another night somewhere close, we drove to South fork & spoke to the camp host. She informed us there was going to be space available but we would have to come back at 2p.. this was 9 am when we spoke, when I agreed that would be fine. I then asked if I could pay for a spot now & come back later. The camp host told me I could however she wanted me to pay for both the night we wanted to camp & the night before to save or spot. I asked them can we come in early if that's the case she said no, so we left. I took this up with the mai boss and he told me what I was asking was irrelevant he continued to cut me off, he was not willing to hear me out. I will never go to sout fork. I will caution my friends and family to not as well.

It was clean, the campsites were pretty spacious, very little amount of bugs. It was a bit weird the only animals I saw were bugs and birds, not even squirrels. A good amount of plant life around but not that diverse. There are firepits which is a nice thing to have and there are currently no restrictions on using it you just need a fire permit.

Really good campground.i stay Monday to Thursday,25$night,no shower, restroom acceptable.first com first serve.there just several camper there when I stay.maybe weekend will busy.(nearby campground with shower and flush toilets $31,must reserve first). A lot of tree for shade, beautiful Creek pass by kids will love it.santa Ana river trail cross the campground,I hike both side and it good for long or short hiking.another trailhead just by the entrance of campground,it is up to the mountains,I hike for half hour due dark,it is good too.there are some road nearby good for mountain bike. you can drive to jenk lake for several mile,need 5$ parking,can fishing in lake but I cannot catch any fish for four hours.i m not good at fishing.the only thing I don't like is I can't get a trail map for the area,the visitor center near by just open at Thursday to Sunday, maybe they have map.there are no cellphone signal on campground (I use TMobile),your can find some signal on jenk lake road. just drive one or two hour you can escape from crowed city and get this beautiful campground to have some rest and good hiking are awesome.
