Abbott Creek Campground

There were only 3 campsites occupied. Part of the campground is along Abbott Creek. The road is decent, as the other reviewer said there are a lot of downed trees that are cut up lying in the campground. The sites are ok, about 4 are in a meadow so you can use solar. Most of the others are in the trees with no sunlight or very limited sunlight for solar panels. Solar in all the campgrounds in this area is not great because of the huge beautiful trees. This camp is a ways out from most of the other campgrounds in the area. If you would prefer to have a few other campers nearby, choose Farewell Bend or Union Campgrounds. If you like being out alone this might be your place. We did not check out the pit toilets.

First the good- paved roads (period).

The bad- It is apparently run by someone other than the National Forest (a concessionaire?) thus their taped over fee increase (all others we stayed were $10). For the extra $6 you get a campground that looks straight out of Dawn of the Dead. Sites that are not taken care of - fire pits with trash (shame on other campers) - and cigarette butts like breadcrumbs to where their tent/RV must have been. Huge dead trees cut down and lying like dead soldiers ALL OVER the place. Maybe this is what’s called a deadwood forest? It would be one thing if it looked natural but - nah.

The UGLY- Really people? At least if you’re going to poop in the woods do it AWAY from your campsite. Enough said.
