Campground details
Setting
Fisherman's Group Campground is a semi-primitive, hike-in site reached via a 2.5-mile dirt trail in San Bernardino National Forest. Sitting at 7,000 feet along Deep Creek, the area is shaded by pine, oak, and cedar trees. The facility provides four walk-in tent sites accommodating up to eight people each, equipped with picnic tables, campfire rings, and grills, along with a shared vault toilet. No drinking water, hookups, or trash services are available. Stream water requires filtering. Pack stock is permitted, though no corrals are present.
Getting there: From Highway 18, turn north on Green Valley Lake Road and travel 3 miles. Turn left on Forest Route 3N16 (a dirt road) and continue for about 5 miles. Park in the designated parking area just beyond the turn to Tent Peg Group Campground and walk 2.5 miles to Fisherman's Group Campground.
