Ask about this camp →U.S. Forest Service lists this as a developed campground. Expect marked sites, a fee station or a reservation, and the usual campground rules. The dispersed-camping freedom of the surrounding forest does not apply inside it. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

Likely — The record is good enough to put a pin on, but thin in places. Treat the details as a starting point, not gospel.
How it was placed
Developed FEE campground (not free) - review | auto:usfs-fee 2026-08-20: US Forest Service developed campground, agency coordinates, agency states a fee. No dollar amount in the agency record -- expect a charge and confirm the current rate before you go. Not field-verified. | Fee 2026-08-22: $10 per night, single site -- that is what San Bernardino publishes for this GROUP campground, and it is strikingly low for a group site. Read it with care: the live EDW record classifies the charge as a SPECIAL RECREATION PERMIT rather than an amenity fee, so the group booking itself may be permitted and priced separately from this $10. No recreation.gov listing was found for it. Source: https://www.fs.usda.gov/r05/sanbernardino/recreation/fishermans-group-campground.
