BLM Pit River Campground

7 very private wooded campsites with fire pits and picnic tables. $12/ night no reservations. Quiet except for the whine of the nearby power turbine at night. Clean vault toilets. Camp host that provides firewood for a donation.

This is beautiful place to swim with no hiking required to get too the water. Right next to the swimming area is a a part of the river you can fish in. The area has picnic tables also. The bathrooms are immaculate and by far the cleanest campsite bathrooms I have ever seen. I only seen about 5 campsites but I think there may be more. A campsite attendant stays at the campsite and is a very friendly guy. So far I have only come to swim and have not camped yet. The parking lot is right next to the swimming area so this has extremely easy access for day swimming. The water was a very nice temperature.

Besides the late night party next door, the campsite is really nice. Bathrooms were clean and supplied. The camp host was friendly and helpful. Easy access to the river and a trail going all the way to Pit River Falls.

It's a small, 8 site campground that has trees separating sites, so privacy is a premium. Plus, the trees add a sound barrier for each site.

Small but beautiful campground that has the most spotless pit toilets I have ever experienced! Spaces are generous in size and feel very private. The swimming area is magical. $8 a night is a bargain!
