About Rose Canyon
Rose Canyon Campground features 73 campsites, half of which may be reserved. There are 3 RV loops. Campsites are spacious, spread out among stands of big ponderosa pine and clumps of Gambel oak in a cool forest setting. Each campsite has a picnic table, grill, firepit and bear box. There is wildlife in the campground. A hosts or employee will give each guest a campground map (trail maps upon request), rules, and safety information. During rainy seasons, Rose Creek meanders through the area to Rose Canyon Lake at the lower end of the campground. This six-acre lake is sheltered by trees, and offers a pleasant setting for a walk, relaxing, or fishing for stocked trout. There are short hiking opportunities near the lake including a handicapped-accessible path from the lower parking area to a floating dock near the dam. The Campground Store is located next to Lake parking lot and is open Thursday - Sunday, 10am-5pm, Memorial Day through Labor Day. After Labor Day through October, the Store is open Saturday and Sunday, 10-4pm. The store carries fishing supplies including poles and licenses, camping supplies, and a sundry of grocery items including ice cream and ice. If the store is closed, you can still purchase ice and firewood through the camp host. When the campground itself is closed for the season, around November-March, the area is still open for woodland walks, wildlife watching, and fishing. Please remember, however, that in the off-season the gates will be closed and locke
