Nice quiet spot not far from I-40

Easy to get to from I-40. Arrived late on a Thursday night and was the only person there. A little road noise off in the distance but the waterfall all but drowned it out.

Beautiful spot, no facilities

Pulled in about 7 pm. Several cars there but no other campers. Quiet evening without disturbance. It was chilly in the morning, so the fog off the waterfall was eerily gorgeous.

Small waterfall with a gravel lot

We found this quiet spot with a small waterfall on Mountain Fork Creek that has a fairly large (semi-level) gravel parking lot right next to the natural waterfall which gives good noise cover for the road nearby. There are a few small trails along the creek and a few small bluffs with climbing spots for those who like some verticality.

Not great for solar panels but we had a good view of the north sky so Starlink works great here!

Also, a few stray dogs and cats came to see us a couple times.
