beautiful peaceful spot to escape the heat

limited sites, each with a picnic table, access to water and flush toilet. very nice spot and the higher elevation provides cooler temperature.

Great tent site

Campsite is at 2000 feet so cooler than bottom and way less crowded. Good biking up side roads.

1st come 1st serve w/ many pros

Am finding out that no free campground is con-free, but this one is great for the fact there are flushing toliets just across the street, there is a water source at the 10 spot campsite, garbage bins that are emptied regularly, and the people who fill up these spots daily seemed to all be courteous…
