This is a hidden gem. Self pay very straightforward, pretty empty during the week, a comfortable amount of people during the weekend, I was able to get a campsite pulling in at 8:30 pm on a Friday. The campsites are large, there is a vaulted bathroom stocked with tissue. Great camping spot, “primitive” or “dispersed camping “ is free outside of the fee area and away from the water. No showers, no drinking water must bring your own.
Not a bad little place to walk very nice
$5 per night with the National Parks Access Pass. Vault toilets, non-potable water, autumn leaves falling, no one camped nearby for 4 nights-perfect!
This is a nice campground for primitive camping only sites are very large, lots of parking, nice fire rings nothing more. It is not maintained however there is not a park ranger, the water spigots do not work in the campsites, check in is self check in self pay, the one spigot that is available labeled drinking water has a sign on it that says do not drink not potable, there is not a shower house. The dump station is long abandoned and filled to the rim with sewage. The beach we all remembered as kids although it is on the parks map in the campground does not exist anymore just a long lost memory overgrown with weeds and trees. There is not good lake access from the campground anymore. The hiking trails need cleared also not maintained. Use this camp as your base campground, a family reunion, scout outing or a place to just get away and bring everything with you. You will mostly have the entire campground to yourself as it appears abandoned and not well known.
When riding it was fun but the trail needs to be cleared
