Hotelling Campground
Hotelling Campground offers 4 first-come, first-served riverside campsites directly on the South Fork Salmon River in Klamath National Forest, ideal for anglers and paddlers seeking primitive access to the water.
Basic amenities include vault toilets and fire rings at each site, but no potable water or trash services—campers must filter/boil river water and pack out all waste.
Located approximately 43 miles south of Callahan via the Callahan-Cecilville Road, the campground is free with a 14-day camping limit and no cell service in the area.
