Nook Bar provides dispersed campsites for tents or small trailers on a large river bar by the beautiful [Wild and Scenic Chetco River](http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/rogue-siskiyou/recreation/recarea/?recid=74289). Enjoy summer fun in the crystal clear waters of this outstanding river! A few shaded spots can be found along the tree line. Camping on the gravel bar during the winter months is discouraged due to the frequency of high water events. - Vault toilet - Garbage disposal from Memorial Day through Labor Day
