Arroyo Seco Comments & Reviews
Visited Arroyo Seco Campground lately? We'd love to hear about your adventure. Did you find us useful? Did we forget something? Anything our community should know before heading out to Arroyo Seco?
Is this campsite permanently closed? We love it there.
Hi Karen,
Arroyo Seco Campground remains closed because roads in the area are still damaged/closed from last year’s storms. The forest service does not provide any date on when the roads/campground may be open again. As a result the campground is ‘closed until further notice’.
