Falls Creek Campground sits along the Chewuch River in Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest, offering 100 spacious, well-shaded sites at 600 feet elevation. Sites cost $5-15 per night and provide strong privacy thanks to spread-out placement among the trees. The campground has no potable water or trash service, so come prepared for dry camping.
This is a primitive, forested campground located along the Chewuch River. It accommodates tent and RV camping (up to 18-foot trailers).
Weather and SeasonsSpring delivers the best conditions: daytime highs around 55-75°F, cool nights in the 35-50°F range, and strong river flows from snowmelt that boost scenery and trout feeding activity. May through June sees lighter crowds than summer while birds and wildlife stay active. The dry climate during warmer months means clear skies for stargazing but also breeds biting flies and mosquitoes. River currents run stronger in spring, so watch your footing near the water.
