Located just off State Highway 21, Bad Bear Campground offers six campsites with basic amenities like picnic tables, fire pits, and vault toilets. Traffic noise from the highway can sometimes be heard from the campsites, but the campground's proximity to the road also means it's easy to explore the many trails in the surrounding forest and mountains. Campers can also fish for trout and whitefish in Mores Creek, which runs right next to the campground. The campground is open between May and September, and reservations can be made in advance if you want to ensure you'll have a site.
