Sheep Bridge Campground

Been going here since I was a little kid. Great unimproved camping with lots of shade and shore access. It’s a short drive to the reservoir or the lake, the trout fishing is best in July and August in my experience. There is a nice channel near the camp ground that usually has a few trophies in it. Very quiet at night. Beware the mosquitos near the boat launch in the evening—they swarm.

This wasn’t a bad spot, it was about 2.5 hours from us. Our spot which was 13 didn’t have a fire ring for camp fires, so we had to make one out of rocks. Yes it had “potable water” but it was a walk if you wanted to wash your dishes. WAY TOO SANDY!! My husband’s concerns were there weren’t any showers, if you have kids like we do. You couldn’t even rinse off in the River, because by the time you got back, you were dusty again. It didn’t have an area for larger groups. “Covered” I think this was probably geared more toward RV’s, Travel Trailers, and not tents. We paid for 2 nights, but I not stayed one. We had fun though, got caught in a thunderstorm Thursday night/Friday morning.

Some of the sites are a little too close to each other… road in has been improved. Tons of stars at night, lots of fish in the lake, and plenty of animal visitors sun up til sun down!

Lovely little campground! Be prepared for a bumpy ride into the campground. The views are beautiful, and it's close to lots of nice hikes and scenery! REMEMBER: If there is currently a ban on campfires, respect it. Our rangers work hard to keep campsites clean and maintained, and it is our responsibility as campers to respect the environment and follow rules. I was very disappointed to see multiple other campers blatantly ignore the campfire ban this last weekend.

Great campsite for hiking, kayaking, and fishing! Great place to spend a weekend.
