Chimney Creek Campground

Primitive campsites, many of them seemed overgrown and abandoned. Vault toilets on site were clean. Small amount of water in the creek as of July 2nd. No campfires/charcoal fires posted. Only propane stoves with permit. Extremely buggy!!

The road to the camp was easily passable from both directions in my FWD Rogue. I got in around 2pm on a Saturday and had the whole place to myself all of Mother's Day weekend, 2025. It doesn't look like this place gets much attention or traffic, like other reviews mention many of the sites are being reclaimed by nature and are no longer accessible unless you bushwhack from the road. I think the fact that Kennedy Meadows is so close draws people away from the Chimney Meadow area, which I see as a benefit. I did find 2 nice sites at the end of camp, sites 36 and 37, which were in great shape and along the creek. Bugs are a bit of an issue but they're manageable. No service and no people so come prepared. No dumpster either so pack it all out, but the pit toilets aren't bad so you've got that

Fairly primitive and no water when we went. We did enjoy our time there. Many of the campsites could use some improvements.

It was so nice. No one else was there. We had the whole place to ourselves. One bummer was that the water was shut off.
