Oxbow Campground

Oxbow Campsite is a primitive, single-site Forest Service campground located 2. 2 miles north of Highway 14 on the bank of Newsome Creek, offering a solitary camping experience ideal for anglers and self-sufficient backcountry visitors.

The site features two camp pads and a vault toilet but no potable water or garbage service (pack-in/pack-out required), and is free and first-come, first-served.

Access is seasonal—open year-round but often impassable during winter due to snow on forest roads—and the surrounding area offers excellent mountain biking on closed motor-vehicle roads.
