So beautiful

Easy to access with 34 ft class A motor home. Beautiful spots with a metal canopy over top of picnic table. Plenty of room.

Off the beaten path

The 3.5 Mike gravel road is easy and wash board. Trains are a bit loud every 2 hours or so. Mosquitoes are abundant!! Vault toilets are available. The trails are soft sand, rock and river crossings. Overall a nice stay.
