Sugar Spring Campground

What sets Sugar Spring Campground apart is its serene isolation, tucked near the north side of Thomes Creek in the rugged Mendocino National Forest, offering an unparalleled escape into pristine wilderness with its intimate size and rustic charm. With only three primitive campsites, the campground ensures an uncrowded experience, perfect for those seeking solitude and a deep connection with nature.

Each campsite is equipped with picnic tables and parking spaces, while vault toilets provide basic facilities. This campground does not have potable water, so visitors must bring their own supply. The area is characterized by a mix of wooded terrain and open clearings, creating a picturesque setting ideal for tent campers and those with small trailers up to 12 feet. Its remote location guarantees tranquil nights under a starlit sky, far from urban noise.

Located approximately 30 minutes from Paskenta, this campground is a gateway to the scenic beauty of the Mendocino National Forest. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy hiking, wildlife viewing, and exploring the surrounding forest ecosystems. Sugar Spring Campground is best suited for adventurous weekend getaways or brief stopovers for those traveling through northern California's most secluded landscapes.
