Ironwood Group Campground

Ironwood Group Campground is a reservation-only group site in the San Bernardino Mountains at 6,637 feet elevation, accommodating up to 25 people and 5 vehicles with amenities including picnic tables, a group fire ring, grills, and vault toilets.

Located just north of Fawnskin and a few miles from Big Bear Lake, it serves as a base for hiking, mountain biking, target shooting, and fishing/boating at nearby Big Bear Lake, though water availability is limited at the campground itself and high-clearance vehicles are recommended for the rough dirt road access.

The campground operates seasonally from early May through early October with current fire restrictions prohibiting wood fires.
