The numbers that decide it
Recreation.gov publishes no site-level detail for this campground, so we cannot say what length of rig it takes. Call the managing office before committing to it in a large vehicle.
Site-level RV detail confirmed against Recreation.gov. Where a field says "not published," the agency has not published it — it does not mean zero.

This campground is along Rucker Creek. The area is an excellent place to take photographs, do a little birdwatching, or relax. It was formally known as Camp Rucker Group Site. Further up the canyon is Rucker Lake. Rucker Lake silted in after the Rattlesnake Fire in 1992 and is now a dry lake bed slowly being reclaimed by riparian vegetation.
