Group site 'D' has room for up to 50 campers and Group site 'B' room for 25.A glitch has resulted in difficulty for some in finding this campground on the reservation website. Once on the Recreation.gov website search for "Cottonwood (CA)" then choose the item that includes "Plumas National Forest".
