About
Overview
Boley Field Group Campground provides old-fashioned, rustic group camping for those that require few amenities. The large open field is great for groups that wish to picnic and tent camp together.
Recreation
Poverty Creek is adjacent to the picnic area where visitors can enjoy splashing in its cool waters. Poverty Creek is also stocked with trout, providing good fishing opportunites for anglers. Hikers and mountain bikers can easily access the 17-mile Poverty Creek Trail System from the site.
Facilities
Boley Field is available for groups of 50 or less. The field has an entrance gate and contains a group fire ring, picnic tables, standing grill and vault toilet. There is no potable water, no hookups and no trash collection. Please pack out everything you bring!
Natural Features
The campground is located at the base of Brush Mountain in a narrow valley along Poverty Creek. The surrounding forest provides shade. The road to the camping area is unpaved and vehicles towing a trailer will hit the ground at the creek crossing.
