About Pearch Creek Campground
Open mid-May through mid-October. Campsite List calendar is for the next reservable dates. Pearch Creek Campground lies just north of the small town of Orleans in the Klamath river valley of the Six Rivers National Forest. Lush foliage provides welcome shade and relative privacy for each of the campground's sites. Salmon and steelhead fishing in the nearby Klamath River is considered some of the best in northern California. Both Klamath and Salmon Rivers are popular destinations for whitewater rafting, swimming and kayaking. Both are within a short drive. The campground offers 10 single-family campsites. All are suitable for tent camping, and RVs can access sites 1, 6-10. Each site has a picnic table and campfire ring with grill. Many have vintage rock stoves as well. A vault toilet and drinking water are provided. The campground is located in a mature Douglas fir and hardwood forest.…
