Pungo Creek Campsite is a designated U. S. Forest Service campground along the Middle Fork Salmon River accessible by permit-only river trips, featuring a low alluvial terrace with open ponderosa pine cover and capacity for medium-sized groups.

The site contains both prehistoric archaeological deposits (pit depressions) and historic placer mining evidence from the 1930s, requiring careful use to minimize impacts on cultural resources.

Access is via the Middle Fork Salmon Wild and Scenic River corridor, with camping limited to assigned parties under the Forest Service's recreation management plan.
