Sweetwater Campground
Sweetwater Campground
Sweetwater Campground is a 9-site Sierra National Forest campground situated along Chiquito Creek at 3,838 feet elevation, offering vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings ideal for fishing and swimming.
The campground features a single loop with dirt and paved parking spurs best suited for tent campers, pop-up trailers, and small RVs (20-foot maximum length), though tight interior roads make maneuvering challenging for larger vehicles.
Located near Mammoth Pool Reservoir and the Ansel Adams Wilderness, the campground operates seasonally (June-September) and requires advance reservations; note that potable water is not available on-site.
