Horseshoe Road Campground
Horseshoe Road Campground
Horseshoe Road Campground offers 14 individual tent sites and one group site directly on the lower Stanislaus River, accessible via a 0. 5-mile walk from the parking area (wagons recommended for gear transport).
The campground provides primitive amenities including vault toilets and non-potable water, with river access for fishing and boating; it's a popular midpoint for summer rafting trips and fall salmon spawning viewing.
Note: High river flows may flood campsites—contact the park office for flow reports before arrival, and a fire ban is in effect May-November (propane only).
