Salmon River Access

Salmon River Campground offers 30 first-come, first-served campsites divided into two sections—a riverside loop with direct river access and an uphill loop with more forest cover—both situated at 6,500 feet elevation along Highway 75, just 5 miles northeast of Stanley.

The campground provides potable water, vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire rings at each site, with a 10-day occupancy limit per 30-day period (open May-September 30).

This location serves as an excellent base for Salmon River fishing and accessing nearby trails including the Casino Creek trailhead, with amenities and services available in nearby Stanley.
